"Bart is a wonderful community resource and leader. I've witnessed his special skill in helping a community have a conversation with itself, exploring potentially highly volatile human issues while enabling diverse groups to reach understanding and common ground. All of this in a low-key, behind the scenes manner.

Bart's experience in building strong communities enables him to share his wisdom and insight's with staff, volunteers and community members in articulate and well understood terms. As a colleague his listening skills are supportive and understanding, an often needed sounding board for me and others.

I highly recommend Bart to any organization seeking to have difficult conversations at many levels in hopes of improving outcomes for the organization and the people involved. "
                               Mark Walker, Chairman  & CEO at Transland
                                        (formerly CEO United Way of Silicon Valley)

                                          (formerly CEO Sobrato Family Foundation)

"Bart was a sounding board for me on many occasions when I was stuck on a situation. His calm demeanor made me very comfortable to reach out to him for advice. He was able to see many sides at once and was always neutral on the best solution allowing me to decide what was best for my chapter."
                                Christine Kutnick, ACC AFRE

"He is so smart, hardworking, and ethical in everything he does. He truly cares about the mission of the organization, while also considering the business implications of his decisions. His staff love and respect him and appreciate his communication style (he is a licensed family counselor). I always appreciate any opportunity to work with Bart, to share issues with him, or to get his opinion on something. He is a very smart businessman with a passion for nonprofits."
                            Jan Cohen, Consulting & Interim Executive for Nonprofits

"Bart has a unique ability to create connections with people from across the spectrum. As CEO of an organization serving children and adults with disabilities, this was a critical skillset. We serve (and are, ourselves) a very diverse population - ethnically, linguistically, culturally, and economically. Bart is able to find and nurture the commonalities, celebrate the differences, and guide his team to expand its vision, reach further, and achieve the goals and objectives of the organization."
