OUR SERVICES > Executive Search
What takes place when ACG helps you find the right leaders?
You create increased organizational cohesion, consensus, and commitment.
Arts Consulting Group believes that finding top executive and artistic leadership, and the senior management team members to support them, is serious business. We take a thorough and personalized approach to executive search. We want to help you ensure that senior leadership candidates fit your organization’s unique culture, team, and community. We carefully and deeply understand the skills, experience, and educational requirements of the job, so that your selected candidate excels in the role.
ACG is not a “headhunter.” Candidate identification is only a small part of what an effective search process is about. ACG works closely with clients and candidates on-site so that the process moves smoothly at every stage. We take great care to listen to the needs of both the organization and candidate, as this is the best way to achieve mutually beneficial and lasting results. We build consensus around the job’s priorities and the specific type of candidate that will best meet those needs. ACG’s unique methodology allows the "job to talk" in order to minimize biases, develop an accurate position announcement/job description, create a strong participatory search team, perform effective background research, and improve the overall selection process.
The additional benefits of using Arts Consulting Group for the entire executive search process are that ACG:
 |
Engages an experienced firm that has a breadth of knowledge and relationships in the arts and culture industry.
|
|
Alleviates the intense amount of time it would take an organization to spearhead its own successful search.
|
|
Enables an organization to continue to focus on the day-to-day revenue generating activities.
|
|
Lends credibility to the importance of the position and your organization to prospective candidates.
|
|
Utilizes a unique methodology to describe the type of attitude, behavior, skills, beliefs and knowledge needed for optimal performance.
|
|
Identifies specific competencies, clarifies specific position issues, prioritizes, and provides structured and unbiased set of interview questions.
|
|
Guarantees that if the hired individual does not remain in the position for a certain period, the search will continue with no additional professional fee required.
|
|
Provides a flat-fee service, as percentage-of-salary fees have led other firms to negotiate for higher candidate salaries simply because they receive a higher fee.
|
|
Embraces personalized advisory services throughout the search process.
