Remote work was a hot topic before many of us had no choice but to spend 6+ months working from home. Prior to March 2020, 3.6% of americans worked from home >50% of the time and 43% worked from home some of the time. Those numbers paled in comparison to the numbers that wanted to (80%) work remotely.
Fast forward six months and plenty of employees are enjoying the freedom and flexibility they get working from home. Things have escalated quickly – dozens of major companies have announced partial or complete remote working policies. And they are aggressively targeting your employees. Especially if your policy is antiquated or ambiguous. HR / Business leaders have some big decisions to make. What are they going to do when we finally can work in the office?
We’ve been getting A LOT of questions about this from clients and job seekers. What should they do? What are other companies doing? So we put together a survey and we’d love your input. It is quick and painless – I promise.
Stay safe, healthy, and continue to wear your masks!
Executive search isn’t some mysterious dark art. You’re not paying for secret handshakes and a magic Rolodex.
But that’s exactly what legacy firms want you to think.
They sell prestige. They sell access. They sell fear. And some companies buy it—because no one wants to screw up a high-profile hire.
Here’s the truth: access is the easy part. Executives respond more than anyone. The real challenge? Fit. Immersion. Results after the hire. And most firms skip that part entirely.
Jeff Smith and James Hornick rip the curtain off the smoke-and-mirrors world of exec search—and explain why most firms are failing their clients (badly) in The 10 Minute Talent Rant, Episode 109, “What Everyone Gets Wrong About Executive Search.”
