Our Approach to Board of Director Executive Search

Keller’s successful board of director recruitment can be attributed to our rigorous and systematic methodology. Before we hunt for board candidates, we identify what our clients seek in a board member. In addition to developing a search strategy, we assess what perspectives, experiences, and competencies are lacking on a company’s board. This comprehensive study of the company, its culture, governance framework, and strategic vulnerabilities provides critical information regarding the right board member profile.

Our headhunting team will begin searching for and contacting potential candidates as soon as we receive information about your company. We use our extensive network of contacts to receive recommendations and referrals, ensuring that we contact outstanding talent. To expand your possibilities beyond traditional searches, we use sophisticated tracking algorithms to identify active and passive prospects.

When sourcing great candidates, we look for a variety of perspectives. We prioritize finding individuals with diverse experiences and perspectives, regardless of gender, age, color, or beliefs. Inclusivity is a critical component of our search strategy, ensuring that your board benefits from diverse ideas.
As soon as potential applicants are identified, we conduct a thorough screening process that includes in-depth reference checks, background checks, and psychometric testing. This ensures that the board members we recommend have the cultural fit and leadership abilities required to contribute significantly to your firm.

After completing our search, we provide a carefully curated shortlist of great board candidates eager to contribute the knowledge and diverse perspectives your company requires to grow.
