Les Gore has earned a national reputation attracting top leadership talent to leading organizations- from multinational corporations to small entrepreneurial businesses.
As founder and Managing Partner of Executive Search International, I personally handle every client assignment and am involved with each search project. I know your business, the people in it—and many of them know me. I’m professional, yet assertive and tenacious, action-oriented, and know how important it is to find the right person— especially “when timing is of the essence.”
And in today’s highly competitive job market and the search for talent, the use of “in house” recruiters and online job postings by many organizations are proving to be not all that successful.
This, especially at the senior level, and is the reason why experienced executive search firms are considered the better approach.
There are very few executive recruiters and search firms out there who have the extensive contacts, know how, and successful track record that I have recruiting great people who are strong cultural fits, successful, meet, and often exceed their organizations’ needs.
A highly regarded thought leader in the industry, I’m a frequent speaker at industry conferences and on hiring and human capital trends. I’ve been quoted in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Forbes.com, Boston Globe, Monster.com, Internet Retailer, Multichannel Merchant, Advertising Age, and numerous other media.
Prior to forming Executive Search International in 1992, I spent 10 years as group vice president at Management Recruiters International—the nation’s largest search and recruiting organization. My leadership and consistent top performance led to my induction into the company’s Hall of Fame. My previous business experience includes management positions with noted advertising agency, J. Walter Thompson Co., and General Electric.
