Testimonials

There’s nothing more gratifying than to hear what our clients are saying about us.

Eastern Michigan University

"We set high expectations for the Boyden team when we launched our search for Vice President of Advancement, and the team exceeded those expectations. The Boyden team worked closely with us from the start of our search and they were always available, including after hours and on weekends. Boyden delivered us an outstanding and extremely diverse pool of candidates, which can be challenging in the fundraising arena. Our first choice from that pool accepted our offer, and the campus is thrilled to welcome him to the community. I enthusiastically recommend Boyden for executive level searches. I'd additionally like to thank Lisa Vuona for her personalized approach -- she is an outstanding leader on whom university presidents can always rely!"
