Services We Provide

Recruiting and retaining great leaders – along with developing the next generation – are taking on new urgency for hospitals and health systems; biotech, diagnostics, pharmaceutical and medical device companies; colleges and universities and not-for-profit organizations. Too few senior executives and trustees are in the pipeline to replace soon-to-be retirees.

There are similarly urgent expectations for great leaders to find solutions to technology challenges. Without exception, these organizations are launching new information technology (IT) initiatives to help achieve strategic goals.

Executive Linq offers a broad portfolio of leadership solutions and consulting services – above and beyond our core service executive search – that helps our clients respond to pressing challenges. Our full array of talent management and leadership solutions drives risk out of the hiring decision. We also support boards in carrying out their charge, and assist clients seeking the best technology leaders and solutions.

We Work in Partnership With You

We develop a close, working partnership to provide you trusted counsel on what it takes to attract the best leader:

• We push you to be bold in thinking about the organization’s future and the impact of great leadership.  
• We provide a national perspective on requisite skills and experience for great leaders.
• We anticipate organizational, management, political and/or interpersonal challenges that could derail the search.  
• We manage the process to set an aggressive schedule with you.
• We coach you through candidate interviews, focusing on your “recruiting” role.
• We provide “first alerts” to circumstances that may affect the outcome.
• We ask you to be candid in sharing information critical to the search. 
• We seek timely feedback about position specifications, candidate selection, etc.
• We ask you to complete a quality report card on your satisfaction with our work.
