Clients such as Accenture Interactive, Mercer/MMC, Nestlé/GLIC, Prudential plc, and Time Warner retain us for our singular focus on ensuring their marketing organizations are well-positioned for the future of marketing.
For more than two decades, the team at Executive Connections has supported Fortune 100 company and senior-level executive clients with hands-on, blended solutions in these three areas:
Retained Executive Search
With our marketing talent advisory know-how and customized follow through, we go well beyond where traditional retained executive search firms leave off. Plus, we are the only firm to guarantee the success of every executive we place by including 6-12 months of transition consulting as part of our search fee. We do this because we know the search does not end the day the candidate starts, and our guided onboarding enables mutual confidence, early wins, and long-term fit. We can also make temporary CMO or CBO placements while a permanent search is underway. Learn more.
Marketing Strategy
We assess your organization and provide recommendations on”best-in-class” marketing, organizational, and compensation practices that are aligned with your strategic objectives and that make you more competitive in the war for talent. Learn more.
Executive Brand Management
Because executives must proactively take charge of their success, the leading-edge career management concept of personal branding is embedded in everything we do. It’s part of our transition consulting, and we also partner with individual marketing executives who want to be “million-dollar” brands. We introduced personal branding to our practice in 2002 before it became mainstream. In working with hundreds of executives we’ve honed our proven formula for taking top global executive brands to the next level. Learn more.
With this innovation combination of distinctive services, we have driven consistent results for businesses and individual executives far beyond what they could accomplish alone.
Every day, we are realizing our vision of building outstanding marketing leadership teams by focusing on the sectors in which we have organizational strategy and talent acquisition & development expertise: Marketing Services, Media, Financial/Insurance Services, and Healthcare.
