"The Executive Search Collaboration" presents a new perspective
on the single most critical function of any organization: finding,
attracting, and retaining the well-qualified executives for key
senior management openings. Written by leading executive search
consultants and human resources executives, the book provides
comprehensive coverage of the mechanics of business executive
recruitment, focusing particularly on the interaction between
corporate personnel professionals and the headhunters who serve
them. Numerous examples drawn from real-life experiences enhance
the detailed coverage of the entire search process--from the
fundamental elements of choosing an executive search firm and
interviewing candidates through complex and sensitive issues such
as the recruitment of minorities and the international executive
search.
Editor Jones-Parker's introduction sets the tone for the
discussions that follow by providing an overview of the synergistic
relationship between human resources professionals and executive
search consultants. Part I, on the executive search process,
includes chapters on the inner workings of the corporate personnel
department and the typical high-level search firm as well as a
chapter that goes behind the business headlines to reveal details
of the most dramatic searches--those for top executives of large
corporations. The second section provides a micro-view of the
search business and covers the range of services consultants bring
to their clients. Individual chapters address research,
assessments, closure, and termination. The final section focuses on
the three most dynamic areas of the search collaboration:
minorities and women, executive recruitment by and for the Federal
government, and the globalization of the executive search. The
concluding chapter features a dialogue between a senior human
resources executive and an experienced search consultant which
addresses key issues for the future. Managers and executives on
both sides of the executive search collaboration--corporate human
resources executives and their outside consultants--will find "The
Executive Search Collaboration" an indispensable and addition to
their professional libraries.
