Our Approach And Services

We are passionate about building diverse, people-first organizations. “Human Resources,” “HR” or the “People” function has rapidly evolved. Today’s HR/People leaders must possess distinctive business acumen, have perspectives on the business beyond People implications and be concurrently strategic, hands-on and innovative.

We are experts in finding senior HR and diversity leaders who deliver strategic business impact. As an extension of the brands we serve, we blend the science of retained executive search with the art of understanding the important nuances of leadership attributes and how they sync with team dynamics.

Because we focus on crushing search execution―rigorous assessment and a fast process―we are often asked to lead searches beyond HR and Diversity for other executive leaders and diverse Board Directors.

We team attack search assignments, leveraging multiple partners on every search. This collaborative approach allows us to launch more quickly in the market and facilitates diversity of thought during the search―ensuring the best possible results for our clients.

We work with clients at every stage, whether they are building and scaling a function or transforming their team and company. We have deep and broad immediately leverageable relationships across industries.

Hanold Associates sets the bar for diversity, equity and inclusion within the executive search industry. DE&I is not only morally right, but a business imperative.

As a matter of our disciplined practice, we always strive to present diverse slates of candidates. Recruiting diverse leaders is deeply embedded in our processes―it is an organic result of our relationships, our recruitment philosophy, and a reflection of our team.
