"A force of sheer will and determination, Diane Fitzgerald and The Fitzgerald Group have consistently impressed me with the volume of work they are able to produce and manage in the face of very challenging timeframes. In today’s competitive environment, however, volume and efficiency are not enough. The true value of what they bring to the table is an appreciable business acumen and the increasingly rare insight into what is required for the success of complex projects."
