I have led recruiting and hiring strategy for the leadership of more than 100 organizations, coached hundreds of executives, and hired thousands of people myself. You get the playbook decision-makers use, from someone who has been the decision-maker.
AI has disrupted hiring on both sides of the table. Employers struggle to find the right leader, and strong executives struggle to get seen. Careers are also more fluid now. Your next move may be a full-time role, fractional work, consulting, or a mix, and each one is won the same way: clear positioning, and a marketing and sales strategy that puts you in front of the people who decide.
