PR Newswire (US)
NEW YORK, March 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Hudson Highland Group,
Inc. (NASDAQ:HHGP), one of the world's leading providers of
specialized professional staffing, retained executive search and
talent management solutions, today announced that Robert B. Dubner
will be appointed to the company's board of directors and to its
audit and executive committees on April 3, 2006. Dubner will
replace Nicholas G. Moore, who will resign as a director in
conjunction with the company's annual meeting of shareholders,
currently scheduled for May 5, 2006, to focus on other business
commitments. Jon Chait, chairman and chief executive officer of
Hudson Highland Group, said, "it is customary in these
circumstances to thank the retiring director for his service, but
this is really a special situation. Nick Moore agreed to join our
board before the spinoff, when the company was incurring
substantial operating losses. Nevertheless, he had confidence in
the vision of what the company could become. He has been an
important counselor to me in the journey from that starting point
to profitability. We wish him all the best in the future. "We are
fortunate to be able to recruit Robert Dubner to our board of
directors. Bob brings 35 years of global professional services
consulting and management experience encompassing strategic
planning, operational expertise, system implementations and Fortune
1000 client relationships," said Chait. "These are all highly
valued assets for our next stage of growth and development." Most
recently, Dubner was a member of IBM's Business Consulting Services
Global Middle Market leadership team, creating and leading the
implementation of its growth strategy. Prior to that, he was the
U.S. and global leader of PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) Middle
Market Consulting Practice. Dubner also has served on PwC's U.S.
Board of Partners and its Global Oversight Board, and previously on
Coopers & Lybrand's Board of Partners. Dubner has a Bachelor of
Arts degree from Franklin and Marshall College, and a Masters in
Business Administration from New York University. Hudson Highland
