High-performing search pros who want to fine-tune their practice
Above-average performers wanting to become high performers
Practitioners who want to network with big billers
Owners/managers wishing to optimize their management skills

In Their Own Words: What Attendees Had to Say!

The first Fordyce Forum in 2007 was an incredible gathering of nearly 200 leading contingency recruiters and Big Billers. Don't take our word for it — check out a sampling of some of the attendees' accolades, in their own words!

"I liked that it wasn’t a replica of NAPS. It catered to more senior recruiters. The speakers were very useful.”
"Love the fact that most speakers have industry current involvements, some actually still working a desk. Everyone was very friendly and willing to share ideas and concepts. That was a pleasant surprise.”
"Extremely validating to understand all recruiters have similar frustrations such as wild goose-chase searches, unethical clients, unruly candidates, counter offers, etc. Also validating to understand where I stack up against my colleagues, and what it takes to bill $1MM.”
"I loved the access to such successful recruiters. The motivation and enthusiasm for our industry was phenomenal!”
"My expectations were high for this thing but I could have set them higher and still been wowed. I have read Tony Beshara stories for many years and wondered how a guy could be that organized/dedicated/regimented/committed, etc. Listening to him made it obvious. I am glad he is in our profession instead of coaching basketball. If he coached basketball, life would be boring because he'd always win." -- Dave Staats (from his blog)
"Excellent. Please do it again!”
“Keep it blunt, candid, and outspoken just as this one was. I will attend again. Very good stuff. When is the next forum?”
