April 19, 2018 | published in PRNewswire[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]alliantgroup and ForrestBrown (alliantgroup’s recently acquired U.K. office) are proud to announce the addition of James Mendelssohn, former Chair and CEO of the MSI Global Alliance, to the firm’s strategic advisory board. A longtime executive for a worldwide association of law and accounting firms, Mendelssohn brings to the board multiple decades of experience in international business management and consulting. In his new role with alliantgroup and ForrestBrown, Mendelssohn will be advising both organizations on how to expand their presence within the U.K. Specifically, Mendelssohn will offer his counsel on long-term strategic growth initiatives as well as on how to foster new business partnerships.

“It is an absolute honour to be joining this distinguished board of professionals,” said Mendelssohn. “During my tenure with MSI Global, alliantgroup was a key partner for our association. I have always held their firm in high regard and I have always admired their commitment to excellent customer service and a winning corporate culture.”[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_section][vc_row][vc_column el_id=”quote-box”][vc_empty_space][dt_quote background=”fancy” animation=”fadeIn”]

“With their recent acquisition of ForrestBrown, an award winning tax consultancy in their own right, alliantgroup is entering a critical phase in their development. I am very proud to be affiliated with both organisations and I look forward to offering my guidance as they expand their footprint within the U.K. and into other markets.”

After stepping down as CEO in 2012, Mendelssohn became the association’s Chair from 2013 to 2017. In 2013, Mendelssohn established Firm Management Associates, a specialized consultancy that provides management advice to international organizations and their members. Prior to his international work, he spent 10 years developing marketing functions within two major accountancy practices (both in the U.K. and overseas) and in 1992, established Prism Drivers Ltd, a print and marketing consultancy focused on the professional services sector. His diverse knowledge and expertise in effective management structures in both the U.K. and abroad make Mendelssohn a valuable asset to the future of alliantgroup and ForrestBrown.

“I could not be happier to have James as a member of our board,” said alliantgroup CEO Dhaval Jadav. “As our firm expands into new markets, James will be instrumental in advising and guiding our strategic efforts. No one has more experience than James in how to run an effective international organization and he will be a critical advisor for alliantgroup as our company ventures onto the international stage.”[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_section][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”fadeInRight”][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”About alliantgroup” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1625080474556{margin-bottom: 20px !important;}” el_class=”alt-h1″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”19675″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”3/4″][vc_column_text]alliantgroup is a management consulting company with a mission to strengthen American businesses through reinvestment in innovation and job growth.
