WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., Oct. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Yair Holtzman, Director at WTP Advisors, a global tax and business advisory consultancy, has been newly elected to the Board of Trustees of the Foundation for Excellence in Management Consulting. The Foundation is part of the renowned Association of Management Consulting Firms (AMCF), the premier international association of firms engaged in the practice of consulting to management.

"Yair's extensive background in both management and tax consulting will be an asset to our organization," said John F. Furth, President and CEO of the Association of Management Consulting Firms and President of the Board of the Foundation.

The AMCF caters to firms of all sizes, and its members are some of the most influential thought-leaders in the field of management consulting industry today.

"The Foundation's Board will profit from Yair's in-depth experience with both large and small firms and his experience with an outfit like WTP Advisors that does tax work is knowledge we would like to harness," says Furth.

As a case in point, Holtzman recently pioneered the concept (and new WTP Advisors service line of the same name) of Optimized Tax Operations (OTO) which applies the best tools in management consulting to tax operations.

"We show businesses how to unveil unprecedented value from their tax functions by combining operations management and operations research, process optimization, and technological expertise with federal, state and local, and international tax consulting service offerings," explains Holtzman.
