EXECUTIVE APPOINTMENT FAQs

An executive search team will give you access to a global network of talent across various industries. Their experience makes them well-practiced in identifying the right fit for your organisation.

An executive search firm will have the time and understanding to properly approach passive candidates, not currently on the market, in a confidential and sensitive manner. 

The firm you choose will have an intimate understanding of your business and what you’re trying to achieve. They should spend a good amount of time with you understanding what drives the business, what the objectives are and the type of personality that will thrive in the role. 

This list could be infinite, but the following are what could be considered essential leadership qualities. The first is integrity, which is key to building trust among teams. Whether it’s calling out accomplishments or acknowledging mistakes, integrity is something employees value highly.  

The second is communication, which is essential to motivating and instructing staff. Poor communication can lead to poor outcomes.

The last is decisiveness – being willing to take on the risk of decision-making and accepting accountability. A prolonged debate and lack of decisiveness will often result in decisions that please no one.  

It’s easy to start the search for your next executive hire - simply contact us for a confidential discussion around your requirements.
