Executive Search
Transformative Leadership Starts with Finding the Right Leader
Great leadership is the most important investment a company can make, and yet studies show that 40% of executive searches fail, choosing your next C-suite leader is a crucial decision.
At Ellig Group, executive search is more than just our core business. It’s the central hub around which we’ve built an entire ecosystem of experts dedicated to providing our clients with solutions to their problems.
But we aren't just any firm.
Our decades of combined experience in business and leadership has taught us that safe solutions lead to “good enough” outcomes. And “good enough” is never good enough.

Executive search is just the beginning

A tailored assessment methodology produces data-driven insights into leadership, performance, and culture.
Accelerating Impact
A post-placement strategic “roadmap” to onboard newly-appointed leaders and enhance results. Every search includes 100 days with a certified coach to ensure success.
Executive Coaching
Individual leadership coaching for executives seeking to increase their leadership effectiveness or navigate a transition and team coaching designed to optimize larger groups of leaders and support organizational health.
Leadership Development
Curated programs include team and group facilitation and on/off-site meetings on topics including transformation, teambuilding, resiliency, and communication.
Our Process: Human Driven & Data Powered
We know that experience is more than a CV. Diversity is more than checking a box. Leadership is more than a PowerPoint presentation. Data is the engine, not the driver.

What is Market Mapping?
For companies looking to test the waters before committing to a full search, our market mapping service provides a heavily researched overview of the talent landscape within their defined parameters. After identifying executives in similar roles at similar companies, we prepare a presentation of target executive profiles that includes a comparison matrix of skills, experience, and any other information relevant to the role. Subsequently, we schedule a debriefing session within just a few weeks after the engagement has commenced.
