Industrial Goods & Technology
The sectors within industrial goods and technology are undergoing disruptive transformation, part of a people-driven, tech-powered revolution. To generate growth and profits, players worldwide must combine talent and technology to implement the right systems and automations—including AI technologies—at the right time, facilitating behavioral change while maximizing operational efficiency and minimizing risk. This requires investing in proven, tech-savvy change agents and operators with strong vision and values who know what good looks like, can navigate daily volatility, and can build deep, empathy-driven trust with diverse workforces. Due to limited pools, finding leaders who thrive at the intersection of business and technology is challenging. But they are out there.
We offer 70+ years of experience helping industrial goods and technology clients—from the Fortune 500 to private-equity-owned early-stage businesses—to identify, assess, and hire the most effective top executives. To do that, we take a cross-country, cross-regional approach to find and deploy optimal talent, think outside of the box, and work across practices, with deep collaboration between our industrial and technology teams. Whether it’s search, consulting, digital assessment, or on-demand talent, we offer comprehensive talent solutions. All the while, we maintain a laser focus on creating long-term partnerships with clients by practicing what we advise—such as our increasing integration of AI and other digital technologies into how we work. In short, we can help find the right, future-ready leaders for this next phase of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and whatever comes next.
