Last week I had a great conversation with Ben Wolf about the transformative concept of Fractional Leadership, exploring the strategic edge gained through part-time executive talent. Here's 3 key things I took from our conversation: 🔑 Embrace "Who, Not How": Focus on identifying the right people to achieve strategic goals, rather than getting bogged down with the process. 🔑 Access Executive Expertise Affordably: Fractional leadership enables small and medium-sized enterprises to engage experienced leaders without committing to full-time positions. 🔑 Elevate & Align Your Team: Hiring fractional executives allows businesses to fill skill gaps, elevate their teams, and align with their core values for a robust growth trajectory.

If you want to build successful teams (or be part of one!) then this episode with Catherine Graham & Tracy Posner from ivy Group Inc (missing Emily Murgatroyd McCann) with Warren Coughlin on #BusinessThatMatters is a must-listen and gives a great perspective on the real benefits of executive search and the potential for this to transform your organization! "The problem hiring organizations often face when finding talent.. is that most companies post (roles), because it's cheapest, and it gives you the illusion that you are out in the market creating applicants and activity, but really what you doing is being reactive and not in control and you end up having to select from a candidate pool that you have not created" - Catherine Graham

My talented co-founders, Catherine Graham and Tracy Posner recently dug into all things hiring, with renowned Business Coach, Warren Coughlin, on his podcast - Business That Matters. 🎤 Prior to co-founding ivy Group Inc, Catherine and Tracy spent decades working with global executive search firms, and have added leaders to diverse organizations in North America. It's safe to say that they know what they're talking about. Have a listen as they share their notes from the field. Key takeways: 💡 Know Your Culture: Understand your organization's culture and map the competencies required for success in high-performing roles. 💡 Avoid Hiring Mirrors: Resist the urge to hire people who are just like you; instead, focus on filling gaps in your team’s skills and experiences. 💡 Go Beyond Good Character: Good hiring goes beyond judging character; it involves evaluating candidates’ fit with your company’s culture and long-term goals. 💡 Proactive Search vs. Reactive Posting: Don’t rely solely on job postings; proactively search for the talent that aligns with your company’s unique needs. 💡 Tailored Executive Search: Customized executive search services are vital for finding candidates who may not be actively looking for jobs but are the perfect fit for your leadership team. 💡 Partnership Approach: Partner closely with your executive search consultant to ensure a thorough understanding of your company’s needs and the roles being filled. 💡 In-depth Candidate Evaluation: Go beyond resumes and interviews by using assessments and detailed role analyses to evaluate candidates thoroughly. 💡 Embrace Cultural Add: Cultural alignment is crucial; candidates are more likely to thrive and remain with your company if their values align with your organizational culture. 💡 Realistic Expectations: Set realistic expectations for roles and compensation to attract the right talent, especially in a competitive market. 💡 Long-term Success: Focus on long-term success by ensuring hires are not just a good fit today but will grow and evolve with your company over time.
