“Our experience with The Buffkin Group could not have been more positive. Executive searches are a challenging and time consuming process in any case and when the search process must be driven through board members, all of whom are volunteering their time to support a not for profit, it is critically important that the search process be streamlined and effectively managed. Roland Lundy took the time interview our management team and our board members in order to get a clear picture of the our organization’s management structure and the personalities and strengths of our management team before he began the search. Using this analysis coupled with his own judgment, contacts, and industry knowledge Roland was able to carefully focus the search process and quickly lead us to the perfect candidate. Roland took a leadership role in not only identifying and vetting candidates but in helping our organization make some strategic decisions along the way. He accomplished all of this while limiting the demands he made on our board and management. The results have exceeded our expectations and I highly recommend Roland and The Buffkin Group to any organization looking for management talent.”

The three candidates are great additions to our firm and are expected to provide us with a great return for our investment in your service.”

“I chaired the Search Committee of the Nashville Area Chapter of the American Red Cross. We were seeking a new Chief Executive Officer following the resignation of the predecessor CEO. After interviewing several search firms, the Committee selected Mr. Roland Lundy of The Buffkin Group. The Committee had committed to complete the search process in 75 days. That meant not only interviewing and selecting the candidate, but having that candidate interviewed and approved by our regional and national offices.
Mr. Lundy did an extremely thorough job of soliciting candidates, screening all 62 applicants, providing detailed written reports to the Committee, doing thorough and useful background investigations, and working closely with the Committee as it selected six candidates for final interviews. All six were excellent candidates. Bottom Line: We completed the hiring process in the allotted 75 days. The performance of Mr. Lundy and The Buffkin Group was truly exceptional. Our thanks to them for their great work on this very important project.”

Ultimately, he did what he said he would do…he delivered an experienced executive that met our qualifications and fit into our culture, and he completed the assignment in a timely fashion. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Craig to any CEO who is looking to make an important hire.”
