These aren't just numbers on a spreadsheet - they're real transformations we've been part of. Every executive we place, every succession plan we craft, it's about people and their futures.
Technology | Vancouver, BC
When the founder of a $120M SaaS company decided it was finally time to step back, they needed someone who could honor what they'd built while pushing into new markets. Honestly? That's a tall order.
Manufacturing | Surrey, BC
Family businesses are tricky - emotions run high, and there's always that fear of screwing up grandpa's legacy. We helped map out a 5-year succession plan that kept everyone at the table.
Healthcare | Victoria, BC
This regional health network had a problem - half their C-suite was hitting retirement age within 3 years, and they had zero bench strength. We didn't just fill roles, we built an entire development program.
Financial Services | Calgary, AB
They'd burned through three CFOs in 18 months - all technically brilliant, all completely wrong for the company vibe. Sometimes you gotta dig deeper than the resume, y'know?
Retail | Toronto, ON
Rapid expansion left this retail chain with 14 stores and no real leadership structure. Store managers were doing their own thing, and corporate had lost the plot. We came in to sort it out.
Non-Profit | Vancouver, BC
Finding an ED who's got both the heart for the cause and the chops to run a $15M operation? That's needle-in-haystack territory. But when you find them, magic happens.
Technology | Waterloo, ON
Post-Series B startups hit this weird phase where the scrappy founding team can't handle the growth anymore. We helped them professionalize leadership without killing the startup energy.
Manufacturing | Edmonton, AB
They wanted to diversify their leadership team, but not just for optics - they needed fresh perspectives to solve real problems. We showed 'em how to do it right.
Healthcare | Kelowna, BC
Look, we get it - letting go of something you built is tough. This clinic founder needed someone who could take over day-to-day while they transitioned to board chair. Delicate stuff, but we've done it before.
"They didn't just find us a COO - they found us THE COO. Someone who gets our industry, vibes with our team, and has already paid for themselves three times over in efficiency gains. Worth every penny."
"Honestly thought we'd have to go outside for our next VP of Operations. Arcen Forge showed us we had the talent right here - we just needed to develop it. Saved us six months and half a million in recruiting costs."
"They get family business dynamics in a way other consultants just don't. Helped us navigate some pretty tricky conversations and come out stronger on the other side. Dad's actually enjoying retirement now!"
