Adriana Cabre, Sr. HR Director, Amylin Pharmaceuticals, Inc., San Diego, CA "Alston-Kline represents the very best of capabilities in applied organizational effectiveness. I have had the privilege of working with them in the business and non-profit sectors. In both environments, they have very successfully completed multiple executive coaching assignments and more recently retained searches for senior leadership. As individuals, Alston-Kline has a unique ability to get "inside the head" of an organization discerning the key elements required for leadership effectiveness, developing an action plan and partnering in executing to create superior performance. They are at ease working with a board in senior-most succession and development as well as with senior management in attracting and developing future talent. Implementation is their forte as they are highly skilled in driving implementation through coaching and their business capabilities. In each situation, I can say unequivocally that the organization is much more effective as a result of their continued partnership with us."

"Alston-Kline brings a unique combination of deep insight into how people think and operate along with a business savvy on how to apply that understanding for the good of the individual and the organization. I know of few people who can confront with both truth and affirmation, who get to the root issues quickly and who are unwavering in their support for the people and organizations they serve. In short, they have achieved that rare status of a trusted counselor for all the sticky, complex, and vital issues that inevitably emerge when people interact." Steve Brock, CEO, Brand Wallop, Tacoma, WA

They have always demonstrated the utmost professionalism with conviction, strength and candor, but in a gentle and caring manner. They combine an expertise in all facets of human resources with an intense, sincere desire to meet the needs of their clients. I can honestly say that I would not have been able to handle a couple of very sensitive personnel issues without their vital guidance and feedback. They are true professionals, and I highly recommend their services."
