What We Believe
We believe in and are committed to:
- A teaching philosophy and access to resources that will make and/or save you THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS
- A search strategy that will surface hidden talent NOT on the radar screen of the search community at large
- 100% follow through on over 2,000 retained engagements...having never abandoned an uncompleted assignment in 15 years
- 92% placement retention rate at the two year mark, and a 98% offer acceptance ratio
- A unique Needs-Analysis approach that results in a much more meaningful understanding of the critical success factors in a specific candidate and their respective environment
- A candidate Self-Appraisal that compels less than ideal candidates to self select out of specific search scenarios in which the fit is less than ideal
- A 360 degree Reference Discovery Process that effectively reveals true strengths, weaknesses, proclivities, and fit indicators of all short-listed candidates before they are presented to you
- A commitment to partner level execution of all mission critical search activities including candidate contact
- A full two year guarantee on all executive placements above $225,000 in total cash compensation
You may find these significant because:
At large corporations when no one is looking
- Four out of ten retained executive searches FAIL!
At 44 Fortune 500 companies who implemented tighter search management practices
- Search failure rate still stands at 19%
- Offer extended and rejected rate is an astounding 29%
