Congratulations to ghSMART Partner Josh Rubenstein, who celebrates 10 years at the firm this month. We asked him to share with us reflections on his last decade, here’s what he had to say: “I feel incredibly fortunate that I’ve gotten to spend the last 10 years at ghSMART. Between my colleagues and clients, I am challenged and energized every day. On the client side, I get to work with the leaders of some of the world’s highest impact organizations. It’s a privilege to partner with them as they think through their highest stakes people and leadership challenges, often around CEO Succession, building the right teams and organizations, and accelerating their own growth and development as leaders... It’s been a great 10 years and I can’t wait to see what the next 10 look like!” We are grateful to have Josh on our team and for the positive impact he’s made over the last decade. If you think ghSMART might be the right fit for you in your career, we’re hiring!
