Need a different kind of advisor to help with a more business-oriented problem? Here are a few of my excellent colleagues - I know them all personally and feel very comfortable recommending them as the best at what they do.
Each professional business advisor listed below has been vetted by the marketplace, and can provide referrals at your request unless there is an issue of confidentiality involved. As far as I know, all of them are accepting inquiries and are willing to have a consultation with you to see if you’re a match. If not, they are well-connected and probably know someone else who would be right for you.
