Founded by former college presidents the late Tom Langevin and the late Allen Koenig, The Registry initiated and accelerated a new trend in American higher education—the utilization of outside interim presidents. A decade later the membership and the span of interim positions expanded to include senior administrators. This expansion occurred when the firm was acquired by Collegiate Enterprise Solutions, which made it possible for George Matthews and Bryan Carlson to join the leadership team. Today, with a membership of 1,000-plus, The Registry has experienced uninterrupted growth and expansion, as it continues to be the dominant firm in the interim executive space.
The Registry is a membership organization—our Members are pre-screened, veteran executives who are immediately available to be matched to the needs and requirements of our college and university clients—all of which eliminates the need for an interim search. Because of this, The Registry can make this promise to you:
The Registry and Registry Advisory Services (RAS) are fully committed to the principles of diversity, equity and inclusion in all corporate and placement related activities. In addition, we are fully supportive of our Interims and the institutions where they serve in their aligned pursuit and ultimate quest for the universal fulfillment of diversity, equity and inclusion principles throughout our society and across the globe.
