“We work with you and are a
force multiplier to your management team, helping illuminate
the greatness of your employees,” says Thomas Lebamoff,
CEO of Exactus Advisors. “We
are direct, to the point and very
passionate about the work, results and success of our clients.
For us, it's personal. We’re not
just passionate about the work—
we're passionate about who we
work with too. We want to exclusively work with clients that
we're emotionally connected to.
If we don't know you, we need to
get to know you. We are willing
to invest time to make sure it's
the right fit on both ends before
we work together.” Lebamoff
says the firm is keen on artful
communication. “We have the
ability to articulate tough messages in a thoughtful, helpful
way. Our team brings the right
amount of finesse and directness in our delivery, effectively guiding our clients through
challenges and complexity toward simple, practical solutions.
We don't just say we're differ-
ent—we are.” Exactus' expertise
is laser-focused on three areas
to deliver maximum value and
leadership support. “We want to
work on your highest-value ini-
tiatives, delivering results and
mitigating the associated risk
areas. We leverage your insights
and guidance, along with opera-
tional and transactional data, to
provide fact-based information
for better decision making,” he
says. “We make a significant
and lasting impact on our clients'
bottom line and growth of their
people—leaving their team in a
better place than before.” Con-
