""As overblown as this may sound, I view working with Roebling Strauss as a privilege – they are that good. I have had the good fortune to work side-by-side with Bill and his team over a period of ten years, and I have never been anything but delighted with the results. Where they excel is in delivering the rare combination of strategic chops, genuine leadership wisdom, and kick butt project management. They drive a culture of responsibility across internal and external teams that align everyone with shared values and commitment. Many times in my life when faced with leadership challenges, I have asked myself ‘What would Bill and the team do?’ and the answer is usually made clear immediately. I know of no organization that offers a similar set of qualities, and I really do feel privileged to work with them whenever I can.""
