WELCOME TO
Retained search is all about levels of certainty. What do we think? What
do we know? What can we prove? A great search is an example of what scientists call punctuated equilibrium; when a new voice is heard above the chorus of business as usual. The voice sings a melody so compelling that everyone is transfixed by its possibilities. It is a time when a single individual can orchestrate a confluence of events producing truly extraordinary results. For thirty years, three levels of certainty have guided our search for these rare people. We think an information explosion is driving business; that knowledge workers are creating it, and because of their extraordinary powers, they make unprecedented demands on leadership. We know that only leaders can solve important business problems, that business problems are at the heart of all worthwhile searches, and that these problems predict the skills necessary for their solutions. We can prove that hypersearching the web can discover the leaders who possess these skills, acquire them for our clients, and develop them to their potential. We hope that after reading these pages, you will think we're your kind of company, after talking with us, you will know it, and after our first search together, you can prove it.
Overview -- offers our thoughts on the search environment today

At the heart of every great search
lies a business problem. That's an absolute verity. Either an extraordinary opportunity,
or an extraordinary threat, if it is not solved, your organization will
suffer severe loss -- or possibly extinction. But leaders are the only people
who can solve important business problems. Managers simply lack a necessary
repertoire of behavior. Our challenge is to translate your problem into the
description of a leader who can solve it. Then to discover leaders who fit
that profile, and acquire one of them for your enterprise.
