On behalf of the entire executive search profession, we are sorry to have lost one of our very best. Gerry was an icon in our profession who inspired and was looked up to by so many. In recognition of his many accomplishments as a Heidrick & Struggles partner and executive search consultant, he was the 1995 recipient of AESC's Lifetime Achievement Award, honoring his truly remarkable impact both on the profession and the well-being of companies worldwide. AESC honors his 50 year commitment to excellence. He will be greatly missed and we know his legacy will live on for generations to come. We extend our warmest condolences to his family and friends. Warmly, Karen Greenbaum AESC President and CEO
