WittKieffer recruits and supports the development of dynamic and difference-making CEOs, senior executives and board members for organizations operating exclusively at the intersection of healthcare, science and education — the Quality of Life Ecosystem.
Exceptional Executives for Today's Challenges
Today, more than ever, leadership matters. It is CEOs, CFOs, presidents and the most senior executives who spearhead change and steer a future course for their organizations. While the fundamentals of good leadership do not change, today’s executives and board directors must be more aware, astute, collaborative and change-ready than their predecessors. It is these leaders who provide a clear competitive advantage and guide success.
Bold Thinking
In business for more than 50 years, WittKieffer understands how a thoughtful, rigorous C-suite executive or board recruiting process is essential to hiring great leadership. By tapping our extensive executive networks and casting a wide net, we identify individuals who might otherwise have gone unnoticed. We present candidate slates that are diverse and dynamic, encouraging our clients to think boldly about who and what they want in their next leaders and how leadership challenges can be viewed as opportunities. In addition to executive search, we have an array of advisory capabilities to support the development of individuals, teams and cultures.
Deep Industry Expertise
Our consultant teams truly understand the industries in which they work, whether healthcare, education, life sciences or the nonprofit sector. Most of our consultants have had distinguished careers in their fields prior to executive search. We take pride in being experts, advocates and thought leaders in the areas we serve, so that clients know that their interests are being represented expertly in the talent marketplace.
