Why choose Starboard to manage your executive search?
Effectively managing an executive search process takes time and a level of expertise that most individuals, boards, and organizations don’t have. Even fewer have the active professional networks from which to draw the kinds of leaders they really need—successful professionals who aren’t job hunting and might remain unaware of your opportunity. There are no shortcuts to finding a highly qualified leader, and you need to get it right the first time. You don’t want to repeat the process anytime soon!
You also want your executive search to reflect well on your organization. A search process that drags on or leaves applicants hanging will turn-off qualified candidates and send the wrong message at a time when you can least afford it. Keeping a search process on track and on time, with appropriate attention to detail, takes real focus. It is what we do, and we do it very well.
What our clients say:
