Leaders International Develops Innovative Research Platform for Canadian Companies Searching for Exceptional Leadership Talent

Recently Consolidated Executive Search Firm Disrupts How Executive Search is Conducted

CALGARY, July 9, 2018 /CNW/ - Leaders International, one of Canada's leading executive search firms, understands that finding the right leadership talent is one of the greatest challenges an organization can face. In fact, the recent 2017 Deloitte Global Human Capital Trends report found that leadership development continues to be a significant challenge for companies, as the transition to the new digital organization creates even larger leadership gaps. That's why the newly consolidated executive search firm offers Canadian clients an extensive global database, unprecedented leadership in diversity-centric and Indigenous executive recruitment, bilingual capabilities, and the Leaders Report^® – a unique research methodology that has created a new standard in search transparency.

Inspired to disrupt the traditional executive search model, Leaders International created the Leaders Report^®, a research methodology that has led to a paradigm shift in the way executive recruitment, board-level positions and leadership succession assignments are conducted. Offering greater transparency and insight on potential talent, the Leaders Report^® helps clients find leadership that better aligns with organizational goals and company culture. It also provides clients with strategic market awareness, critical analysis of their current organizational structures, and an action-oriented leadership onboarding plan.

"We know that the companies we collaborate with are looking for highly talented executive hires, and we've seen remarkable results when there is more transparency integrated into the executive search process," said Richard Joly, Managing Partner, Montreal, at Leaders International. "Whether an organization is expanding, reorganizing, or transitioning new leadership roles, companies in need of exceptional talent at the executive level turn to Leaders International for its senior-level expertise and access to top-level candidates from across the country, and globe."

As a newly consolidated firm, Leaders International combines the proven experience of Davies Park Executive Search, Higgins Executive Search and Leaders International. With regional-specific expertise, Leaders International collaborates with private, public and non-profit clients from coast to coast to coast from its offices in Montreal, Calgary, Ottawa, Toronto, Winnipeg, Saskatoon, Edmonton and Vancouver. As members of Penrhyn International, Leaders International also has access to a leading global network.

"The vision behind consolidating for our firms was clear: as a union of equals, together we could create a new, market leading executive search firm that would offer clients a very strong footprint, specialized expertise and most important, superior leadership candidates," said Allan Nelson, Managing Partner, Calgary, at Leaders International.

Leaders International focuses executive search efforts across a number of specialized practice areas, which include: energy and resources, construction and development, financial services, diversity-centric and Indigenous search, education and academia, technology, media and telecommunications, among others.
