Who We Are

We are former university administrators and consultants from one of the largest global executive search firms.

Throughout our careers, we have successfully completed approximately 200 searches across a full range of private and public institutions including: liberal arts colleges, regional universities and colleges, research universities and institutes, members of the Ivy League, as well as national non-profit organizations. Our experience includes searches for presidents and chief executive officers, provosts and vice presidents, deans and other leadership positions. 

We are proud that 82% of our placements within the last three years identified as women; Black or African American, Hispanic or Latino, Asian, or from two or more races; and/or part of the LGBTQIA+ communities.

How We Work

We appreciate that each institution and candidate has its own distinct culture and identity. We have the experience to recognize that one size does not fit all, and we build customized and accessible solutions to reflect your unique ambitions.

We believe in the importance of diverse viewpoints and experience. We are unwavering in our pursuit of engaging everyone.

We know exceptional leaders are needed now more than ever. It is our privilege to find and support these individuals, and we take this work seriously.  

We are mindful of and respect resources. We make the most effective use of time and finances without compromising excellent work.

We recognize that research and data are essential to making good decisions. We are steadfast in collecting, sharing, and protecting information. 

We understand that there are rarely good surprises in searches. We believe in diligence, transparency, and open communication

We believe in quality over quantity. You are not one of many; you are one of a few by design. 

We are motivated by the opportunity to do meaningful work in which everyone is treated well.

We value relationships. We work with professionalism, openness, and kindness to produce the best results.
