Transformation

At McSherry Brown, we understand the importance of transformation within business and specialise in the recruitment and development of transformational leaders with the skills and attributes to drive real change.

We believe that transformation is not simply about improving efficiency, making cost savings, driving synergies and profit across a business, it is also crucially, about investment and growth, exploiting opportunities and reinvigorating businesses. We know that our clients need us to seek out exceptional people who are strategic, transformational and have the tenacity to be agents of change for their organisations.

We understand transformation better than most because we have always been focussed on it – we know the DNA of those individuals with a clear vision for the future and how to realise it. 95 % of all of the executive searches that we have completed for our clients have been transformational in nature. If you would like to find out more about how transformation can help your business or how to access the exceptional people who can transform your organisation please contact us.

"We understand the importance of transformation because we are doing it ourselves"

Diversity

In the face of a new global economic reality businesses are reassessing how to remain competitive and relevant. Embracing diversity in the work force – diversity of race, ethnicity, gender, and also diversity of experience and thinking – will be one of the key ways that firms ensure they innovate, differentiate and successfully compete, globally.

We know that a diverse leadership team and workforce – bringing diversity of backgrounds, experiences, views and styles - leads to productive debate and creates innovation, differentiation and competitive advantage. We see, on a daily basis, how a broad range of individuals can invigorate and transform organisations.

If you are committed to building a diverse leadership team from across industry sectors, cultures and geographies to strengthen your organisation, or want to know more about diversity, and how to deploy it successfully, please contact us.

We work with leadership teams to help them understand the governance and cultural changes required to drive diversity through their organisation. We seek out and create market leading perspectives and facilitate networking and exchanges of best practice.

Our depth of knowledge and experience of the industries and specialisations in which we work gives us insight into where talent from other backgrounds can best be leveraged.

We work with our clients to create diverse teams and take a broad creative approach to our search strategies. 77% of our shortlists contain at least one diverse candidate and 51% of our shortlists contain at least one female candidate.

Sustainability

Sustainability is fast rising up the agenda in the corporate world. Today, while environmental considerations are still very much at the centre of the debate, sustainability is now much more comprehensive, embracing social, ethical and governance dimensions.

The benefits to business of a sustainable business model are manifold - not only does it reduce risk and costs but it can also create new opportunities and affects the perception of stakeholders ranging from clients to investors, as well as the ability of companies to attract talent.

If you would like to know more about sustainability, how to deploy it successfully or to recruit individuals that can make a difference to your business please contact us.

The challenge has moved from ‘whether’ to ‘how’ to integrate corporate sustainability into day-to-day management. Forward thinking institutions are looking for transformational leaders who realise the value of sustainability and are able to implement commercial strategies that are not in conflict with profitability.

At McSherry Brown, we understand how firms are meeting the demands of today and tomorrow through sustainable business practices. Our passion and track record in sustainability drives our ambition to search for individuals and clients who understand its transformational power and who can steer commercial, future oriented policies through organisations.
