In transformation and reorganization processes, positions are regularly eliminated. This also affects long-standing executives with business responsibility at Director, VP, SVP and Managing Director level.
These valued executives have shaped companies and carried responsibility over many years. Now, those affected often find themselves unprepared for a demanding professional transition.
With our Career Transition Advisory, companies can offer these executives an effective service to support this transition professionally while also demonstrating lasting appreciation for long-standing key contributors.
The particular value of Career Transition Advisory lies in our Executive Search experience.
As Executive Search consultants, we have joined more than 20,000 interviews directly between companies and executives. We therefore know from practice what decision-makers focus on, which questions are relevant and which factors determine success or failure in these processes.
Unlike classic outplacement, our focus is more on the “front end” of professional transition: realistic positioning, preparation for discussions with decision-makers and ongoing support throughout this decisive final stage.
We support and consult executives in particular with:
- realistically assessing professional options
- developing a credible market positioning
- preparing for discussions with companies and decision-makers
- assessing and interpreting feedback and market signals
- evaluating concrete opportunities
- preparing for a successful start in the new role
The goal is not the fastest possible next position. What matters is whether the role, organization, expectations and personal objectives truly fit.
This is how Career Transition Advisory emerges from real Executive Search practice:
market-oriented, personal, close to decision-making and consistently focused on the right next leadership role.
Deliberately limited. Personally supported.
Career Transition Advisory is not a standardized outplacement service.
We therefore deliberately support only a limited number of executives at the same time in order to guarantee the necessary personal proximity, individual preparation and concentrated attention.
PS: We strictly separate Career Transition Advisory from our own Executive Search mandates and ensure that there is no mixing of our services.
