Furst Details

FURST CLASS.
We’re “talking boss.” We’re meaning the C-Suite,
VPs, Directors, Board of Directors … you know,
the ones who have the Big Picture in mind.
These are the ones who have a firm grasp of the company’s goals
— and how progress is measured — essentially “talking boss.”
FurstExecs strength lies in our recruiting process. We create
unqiue profiles of what you are looking for. Leaders who are a
close fit with the traits and drivers in their success profiles, are up
to 13 times more likely to be highly-engaged, emotionally-invested,
and willing to expend considerable discretionary effort in their jobs.
We listen first. We gain input from stakeholders across
the organization — capturing unique perspectives and building
staff buy-in.
We match strength with strategy. We combine
stakeholder input with our own expertise and leadership data to
develop Position Profiles that outline what it takes to sit in the
chair. We seek the highest qualified candidates. Then …
We are data driven. Our insights are drawn from a
database of assessments. We research the area to find the top
three candidates. We prepare a confidential report and arrange
interviews. We create the blueprint for you. Stress reduced.
You’re welcome.
We want to share with you
our insider knowledge.
