Board Search
The right mix: appointments with impact
An effective board thrives on its interaction.
What truly matters is not just who sits on the board, but how they work together.
With our board search, we bring personalities to the table, not just names. That is why we place particular emphasis on cultural fit between company and board members.
Profile Definition & Role Clarification
A strong board does not come together by chance. Together with you, we analyze which competencies, personality traits, and perspectives will meaningfully complement the existing board, professionally, strategically, and interpersonally.
Targeted Outreach
Whether seasoned board members or executives with strategic maturity: we identify and contact suitable personalities from our trusted network. Discreetly, professionally, and convincingly.
Diversity & Board Complementarity
Effective boards thrive on diversity. We consciously consider different perspectives, industry backgrounds, generations, and functional skillsets. Always focused on synergy and board impact.
Structured Selection Process
You receive a solid decision-making foundation: board CVs, mandate overviews, and personality assessments form the basis for a well-informed, future-ready appointment.
What you can count on
- Personal consulting: independent because we are owner-managed, committed, and at eye level
- Sharp understanding of the Swiss market paired with a strong international network
- Support, if needed, with integration, role clarification, and mandate onboarding

Our Process for Board of Directors Mandates
Needs analysis & role clarification
In close collaboration with you, we define which competencies, personality traits, and experiences are strategically relevant for your board of directors – aligned with the existing board structure.
Targeted search & outreach
Based on our network and deep market knowledge, we identify suitable individuals – with or without prior board experience. Always tailored, discreet, and precise
Selection process & matching
We conduct structured interviews and assessments. We evaluate not only professional qualifications but, above all, the cultural fit with your organization – because especially in a board setting, values and attitude are critical.
Support during integration & impact
Our support does not end with the selection. We guide the onboarding of new board members and promote a smooth integration into the board – upon request with ongoing coaching or advisory support.
