EXECUTIVE TRANSITION ADVISORY
Your Trusted Advisor
Confidential consultation for senior executives in transition (both for-profit and non-profit) including:
- pre-interview prep
- post interview review
- resume fine tuning
- specific networking plan
- ‘your trusted advisor’ throughout your transition
It is important to note: I am not a coach nor a therapist. What I am is a straight shooter who has spent a career in the trenches interviewing. I am available to ask you the hard questions and hold you accountable while you work towards your next professional chapter.
ASK
YOURSELF:
So do I stay where I am and just wait for the phone to ring with my dream job?
Or do I work with ML, be held accountable, get a serious plan put together, and obtain that executive position I really want?

“Mary Lee is an incredible resource for anyone looking to further develop and understand their market value. She’s the rare combination of simultaneously high level experienced, and practical and accessible. These weren’t light weight pep talks; they were critical, constructive and every one of our conversations had tangible, immediate value; worth every penny. I had high expectations going in, but I can honestly say working with her helped make me into a better professional overall.”

“Mary Lee Montague is an exceptionally talented Executive Search Consultant and Coach. I’ve had the distinct pleasure of working with Mary Lee as both a client, when she handled an Executive search for a non-profit that I’m on the Board of and as a Coach when navigating a career change. Her professionalism combined with street-smarts allowed us to get to the heart of the matter quickly and develop strategies for success branching out in many directions. Able to balance the needs of both the Candidate and the Employer, she will leave no stone unturned in her quest to find the right candidates for the job. Her thorough vetting process ensures that only the highest caliber of talent gets through creating a great organizational fit. Mary Lee is a true pleasure to work with as she approaches each project with thoughtfulness and heart.”

“Mary Lee helped me to think broadly about the types of positions where my skill set and experience would be transferable and in alignment with my career objectives. In my sessions with her, she helped me to focus my networking and interviewing efforts where they would be most productive. She also helped me develop a level of comfort with the interview process by debriefing and interpreting the various scenarios I was experiencing.”
