"Keith McAslan joined me as CFO for a distressed hand tools business in desperate need of financial leadership. Keith's experience leading turn-arounds within private equity organizations allowed him to make an immediate impact. Our challenge was to quickly position the company for sale. McAslan was instrumental in dissecting the financial drivers of the business and identifying improvement areas that deliver quick returns. Because of Keith’s effort and expertise we were successful in securing a strategic buyer in record time at an attractive price.
Keith is as comfortable leading teams as he is digging into the details. He is a very approachable, hands-on leader that is able to quickly assess situations and activate corrective action plans. This deal could not have been done in the compressed timeframe without Keith McAslan's leadership." Mark A. Gold - President & CEO Western Forge
