The reality behind a polished image
New hires
rarely live up to expectations.
If I’d known this,
I’d never have
taken the job.
I should’ve known this wouldn’t work.
No leader is the same, just as every company and its culture is unique. We believe that understanding the good, the bad, and the ugly of both the organisation and the potential candidate will empower the decision making process for both sides.
Every leader has the potential to thrive when there are no hidden agendas and no skeletons in the closet, and when the context is fully above water. Without that knowledge, frustration grows, motivation fades, and results fall short.
Too often, executive hiring feels like a dating platform, with candidates and companies presenting polished versions of themselves. This creates unrealistic expectations, leading to costly mismatches in culture, time, trust, and money. In fact, 33% of executive placements fail within 18 months due to a lack of brutal honesty and open communication.
Let's Unlock Brutal Honesty Together
We begin by understanding the context, delving into the organization’s DNA, culture, and future ambitions. Our proven and unique approach, built on seven key dimensions, ensures we identify the right candidate to excel and drive lasting success.
​
We also deliver coaching at every step to ensure open, honest communication between candidates and hiring team.
We cut through polished façades to connect businesses with leaders who truly fit and deliver real, lasting impact in the given context.
