Curious about why we choose a rooster to bring our brand to life?
We’ve got three key reasons…

The rooster

Inspires

A rooster has a clearly defined role and embraces it with confidence. A flock depends on its rooster to keep watch and protect them. They put their trust in this watchful protection and leadership. Roosters are often associated with these traits and known for courage and protection.

The rooster is a symbol that inspires us to be brave and to work with an unwavering sense of purpose. It represents our commitment to truly understanding our clients’ organizations and teams so the work we do together is focused on protecting their interests and positioning the entire “flock” to thrive.

The rooster

Leads

At the dawn of each new day, the rooster’s crow delivers a clear message as reassurance of sentinel presence and support. Leading by example, the rooster rallies the flock to rise and begin the work of the day.

The rooster is a symbol of our respect for the vital role leaders play in the successful operation of an organization. It represents the dedicated leaders who believe in their people and the power of possibility. It’s these leaders that give our work purpose. They are leading the way to a brighter future.

The rooster

in our roots

Our founding principal Rosemary DiMonte spent her childhood on a farm. Her grandfather raised roosters. Morning was greeted by the crow of the roosters as they announced the breaking day and the call to rise and get things accomplished.

The roosters greeted every new day with enthusiasm, they were industrious and dedicated, they looked out for each other and the greater good, and they thrived.

That metaphor of the rooster has shaped our story, our values, and our work. It keeps us grounded in what works so we can help our clients achieve what matters most.

Our clients

Our clients are privately held and publicly traded companies that represent an array of industries in North America, the UK, EU, Mexico, and Latin America. They are diverse but they share two common aspirations:
  1. They want to achieve remarkable results.
  2. They want exceptional leaders to make that happen.
Every day we get to work with passionate leaders and teams committed to being the best in everything they do. That inspires us.
