Our Leadership Advisory Offerings
Selection
Hiring or promoting the right executive involves aligning candidates with your strategy, leadership challenges, culture, and values. While many firms rely on generic assessment frameworks, we provide a tailored approach that considers your specific requirements and how the new leader will fit into and enhance your senior team.
We start by understanding the requirements set by your leadership and board, then use the most effective combination of methods and tools to evaluate candidates who are best aligned with your needs and goals. Finally, we conduct structured reference interviews focused on observations relevant to the final decision.
Succession and Development
We evaluate your high-potential employees using the same criteria we apply to external candidates. The reports provided to participants and their executive sponsors include detailed, verbatim comments based on others' observations, as well as an assessment of participants' readiness to assume greater responsibilities.
Our reports also provide development suggestions to help each leader enhance their skills and become more competitive for future opportunities. When employed by a sponsor or executive coach, these suggestions can identify new experiences and assignments that build capabilities and accelerate each leader’s growth, tailored to their individual needs.
Independent Assessment
Organizations that use search firms to fill C-level roles rely on those firms' assessments to make crucial decisions that will shape their future. Some have requested an independent evaluation tailored to their specific needs to address any remaining concerns about candidates.
Our assessments are based on a thorough understanding of your business context and challenges, address any lingering questions and gaps in findings from other firms, and highlight key factors to consider when onboarding the successful candidate. The comprehensive nature of our reports offers an additional layer of reassurance in selecting the best person for the role.
