We ARE built different. #GreatnessInGrey

We love our MN community! Nate and Brian on our Grey team attended the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce Golf Tourney recently. It was an amazing course, great weather, and the team walked away with a score of 61! Didn't take home the trophy, but next year it's ours! Thanks to all the event sponsors and for the Chamber putting together another awesome event. #greysearchstrategy #communityinvolvement #teamwork #mnchamberofcommerce Brian Bjorgum Nate Allen Ali Swegarden

We love reading and sharing articles about the evolving leadership ideal. This new one in Rolling Stones hits on so many of the common themes we're reading about lately: 1. Embrace empathy, because "people don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care." 2. Master the art of communication, with a focus on authenticity 3. Foster inclusivity, where diversity of though, perspectives and experiences are encouraged 4. Cultivate a growth mindset, where mistakes are viewed as opportunities   This is a great read for aspiring and seasoned leaders alike. #Leadership #LeadershipDevelopment #CareerAdvice https://lnkd.in/gd4hTK7H

To attract the best, you must be the best. Last week, we celebrated the companies getting it right within our community at the Star Tribune Top Workplaces celebration. Top Workplaces recognizes companies of all sizes for their ability to provide a nurturing, inclusive and employee-centric environment – a critical aspect to finding success in today’s competitive market. Our own Alissa Henriksen introduced the evening's panel of speakers from this year's Top Workplaces, who shared ways they're focusing on employee attraction and retention. We're feeling inspired and motivated to bring these insights to our clients. #TopWorkplaces #RetainedSearch #ExecutiveSearch

To honor Juneteenth, we're closing our office for a day and taking the time to reflect on the journey toward racial justice and equality. But at Grey, our commitment to inclusivity and equity extends beyond a single day. We strive every day to create workplaces – for us and our clients – where diversity is celebrated and prioritized. #Juneteenth #Diversity #Inclusion #EqualityForAll Alissa Henriksen Lucas Henriksen Nikki François Nate Allen Ali Swegarden Vickie Skala Brian Bjorgum Brett Rose Danielle Lindquist, CDSP Lisa Neakarse Katelyn Plank Crawford Jordan

We’re on the road again! Our team had a fantastic on-site visit last week with our new client, Diamond Animal Health, Inc., based in Des Moines, IA.

We just kicked off two new roles in Des Moines! More details to come. Thanks Diamond Animal Health for putting your trust in Grey. We are thrilled to partner with you on these key hires!

One of the biggest shifts in executive recruiting our co-founder has seen in her career is the growing emphasis on company culture. Top executive candidates now prioritize cultural fit as much as high salaries or prestigious titles.
