CASE STUDIES
SUCCEEDING TOGETHER
- 1 / 1
This is one of the most valuable collections of data I've seen regarding people planning – and I just wanted to share how much it and your People Team was appreciated.
Dror Nahumi and Norwest showed conviction and belief in the company back in 2016, at a time when others didn’t. Since then, they’ve helped us recruit key executives, introduced us to customers and connected our senior team with other leaders in the portfolio to share best practices and learn from one another.
Norwest makes the extra effort to support its portfolio companies, and truly understands how to build and grow leading businesses. Norwest’s assistance at the time of our IPO has all been invaluable and instrumental to Rackspace’s ongoing success.
