Methodology

Briefing

We align early on the mandate, success criteria, and the realities of the role. This reduces false positives and keeps decision making clean later in the process.

Systematic market research

We map the relevant market and identify high quality passive candidates, including adjacent sectors where it improves outcomes.

Conversion

We shape a credible role narrative and approach candidates with care. The goal is informed engagement, not generic outreach.

Assessment

We run structured evaluation and referencing to understand capability, leadership pattern, and fit with your stage and context.
