Whitney C. Allgood, Former CEO National School Climate Center, Inc.
ACEUM Advisors + Search was an invaluable partner to me as I took over a struggling non-profit and had to assess the situation, develop strategy, and execute on some tough decisions on a very tight timeline. With Ira’s help, I was able to rapidly stabilize the situation and then organize a successful partner search that gave the organization a new life. Ira’s deep experience with all these processes, thought partnership, and willingness to roll up his sleeves and provide real help on a variety of tricky tasks made all the difference.
Martin Englisher, CEO YM/YWHA of Washington Heights + Inwood
The Y is so grateful and lucky to have had the expertise of Ira Machowsky and ACEUM Partners. Ira brought decades of Human Resource acumen to two searches he led for our organization. His professionalism and keen eye for talent resulted in individuals who are now embedded in our executive team and contributing greatly to our success and impact on the community we serve
Darra Gordon, Chief Operating Officer GLAAD, Inc.
It has been my pleasure to consider Ira and his firm ACEUM a friend and valued partner to GLAAD over the past several years during which he and his team have successfully and professionally conducted a number of key leadership and operations searches for us. Ira brings to his work extensive experience in senior leadership roles in the nonprofit sector as well as a deep understanding of operations and HR/People strategy which has contributed to his unique ability to quickly grasp the GLAAD mission and organization culture and match the best talent to meet our needs. I'd highly recommend Ira and ACEUM to any nonprofit seeking a trusted partner and advisor in this area of work.
