National Housing Initiative

Regional Directors

The idea of corporate citizenship has been called “fuzzy” and “woolly” in the pages of Fortune and The Economist. We think otherwise. In our experience, all organizations have responsibilities to the communities and public they serve. While these responsibilities will vary, we know that executives who meet them add value to organizations and communities alike. Whether it’s in the field of manufacturing, transportation, human relations, organizational development, diversity or financial services, our corporate clients turn to us when they need excellence in leadership in the fullest sense of the word.

Boulware at Work

At Issue: The Boulware Group was contacted by one of the world’s largest non-bank financial service companies, which also is one of the nation’s largest sources of home mortgage financing. The company was creating a network of offices in 25 cities nationwide as part of its multi-billion dollar commitment to making home ownership a reality for thousands of first-time home-owners. To head these offices, the company sought 25 executives who would be responsive to the needs of the community while advancing the company’s mission of increased home ownership.
