EXECUTIVE SEARCH

"A great person attracts great people and knows how to hold them together."
                                                                          - Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

A well-actuated strategic search is one of the most important things an organization can do to ensure its long-term success. The process includes alignment with the strategic plan, defining the board’s roles and responsibilities, considering existing leadership assets, and determining gaps in mission fulfillment.
