I like the colors/shading used in the designs & the squares within the squares representing inside an organization connected to the outside of the organizations(s). It also represents action - steady, strong, consistent. Hands down, Entry #3 symbolizes my work.
I still like the first design best out of all of them - it seems to capture the feel & look of The Doherty Group. I also think it is appealing to male executives in a conservative industry. Thank you!
