“I engaged Rush to help me with hiring a senior management person for my organization. I have been very happy with the results. Rush helped me all the way through the process. He helped me to accurately define the position so that I was clear with roles, expectations, needed job skills and experience. He helped identify and then  narrow down a pool of suitable candidates and then helped with the interview process. He helped with the final selection and the negotiation of compensation. I am more than happy to advocate for Rush and I would not hesitate to hire him again.”

“Rush is a leader, coach and teacher. He challenges the status quo in a way that is always focused on getting the best end result. He also looks for ways to leverage the strength of individuals while still providing growth opportunities. His communication approach is clear, direct, [and] authentic and invites differing viewpoints and ideas. He holds people accountable for what they are supposed to do and teaches/coaches them when they get stuck.

Rush’s honest an open style is refreshing and I would consider it an honor to have the opportunity to work with him or report to him again. He has been a mentor, coach and guide for me in my transition and many of the successes that have occurred for Staff Training are a direct result of his support.”
Angela Gray, Staff Training and Development Manager, McGuireWoods, LLP

“When Rush came on board as our interim Chief Human Resources Officer, he immediately began to sort through and manage all of things HR was responsible for. He implemented a market pricing structure that helped communicate much more effectively with managers and staff about appropriate compensation; he made changes in our total rewards programs that saved countless hours of administrative time while improving the impact and effectiveness of the programs; and he worked us through the annual budgeting process more smoothly than I had experienced in my seven years with the firm.

“With Rush’s leadership, our diverse group began to function collaboratively as a team. We were in the loop on things and Rush took a personal interest in making sure that our individual work teams ran smoothly and that wrinkles were ironed out in a short period of time. The Compensation group certainly benefitted from his level of expertise and the great ideas he was able to implement here.”
