Why we do what we do
Distinguished Search launched February 2020.
​
These are interesting times.
​
Now, more than ever, there is an opportunity to change recruiting.
​
Who we work with
On the surface our clients look very different from each other. There are tremendous synergies.
-
They are passionate and on a mission.
-
They are industry disruptors.
-
They have a strong foundation and have big goals for the future.
-
Their story may not be obvious, and they need someone to help tell it in the market when attracting top talent.
-
What they are looking for in an executive is ambiguous, and a lot more than a title.
-
They’re busy and want results.
