"Adam is an outstanding CFO. In the relatively short time that he has been with us, he has transformed structures and processes and put us on a much better business footing. He has accomplished this through technical ability, strong leadership and perhaps most importantly through an open consultative style."

"Adam Summons is an outstanding public speaker and an excellent example of a contemporary CFO and finance leader. Adam has a unique 'CFO lens' having worked in a number of incredibly critical and demanding CFO roles and always delivers his messages and experiences with clarity, passion and is highly rated and respected with CFO audiences."

"Adam stepped into a difficult situation and made an immediate positive impact. He focused on improving results and established an excellent relationship with the Managing Director as well as the rest of the management team.
