About Diligent Partners

Diligence in search matters

Many of today's most impactful roles did not exist a year ago. Anywhere. As businesses struggle to reinvent themselves, or to redefine who and what they are, essential new roles are being created on the fly.  Not renamed. Not modified. Created with no prior models or job descriptions

Diligent Partners partners with clients to define such roles, their required qualifications or past experience. The nuances of essential leadership skills. Proof of past successes and the back stories of what made these candidates successful. Their influencing ability. Their stamina. Their learning ability. Their commitment to succeed. Their courage to lead as change agents.

Then we find, vet and recruit them. So you can leap forward.

Testimonials

"We just completed a long and challenging search with Diligent Partners for a partner-level executive for our management consulting firm.  Completing a search like this for a small, culture-driven firm was no easy task, and we put both George and Scott through the ringer with our selectiveness, stubbornness, and hundreds of questions.  Both George and Scott did a great job working with us, walking us through all the details, and most importantly, finding several extremely well qualified candidates for us to meet with and ultimately hire.  Our search came with some self-inflicted bumps along the way, and I was impressed with the manner in which Diligent Partners stuck with their commitment to us from day one to the first day on the job of our new executive.  We liked their candidates so much, we ended up hiring two."

"George and Scott have just completed a most professionally effective engagement for one of my critical IT Director positions.  Every step of the process was made clear and was executed with precision.  Their sourcing generated for my organization a viable cadre of leader-candidates whose credentials were aligned with our requirements and yet reflected variations in focus, personality, and style.  Their assessments were spot-on, just the right balance of reality and optimism.  Their leader-candidates were so well qualified that even those not selected proved to be strong candidates for other opportunities in my organization.  DP's work is the most satisfied I've ever been with an executive search firm's performance."
