EXECUTIVE SEARCH
Executive Search For HR
With over a decade of experience in HR leadership appointments, we specialize in finding HR executives who drive change and foster organizational success. Modern HR leaders play a crucial role in aligning strategies, building inclusive cultures, and integrating advanced technologies. We focus on executive search for senior HR roles, ensuring a strong cultural fit and the right skills to drive innovation and transformation. Our transparent, collaborative process leverages industry expertise and offers post-placement support to deliver HR leaders who align with your business goals and ambitions.
Global Executive Search
At KennedyFitch, executive search is about more than filling roles—it’s about finding leaders who align with your strategic vision and corporate culture. In today’s business landscape, organizations need executives who not only possess the right skills but can also drive growth, navigate complexities, and inspire teams. We offer personalized, boutique search services, combining global reach with local insights to identify leaders that fit your unique culture. Our approach includes market mapping, in-depth candidate assessments, and post-placement support, ensuring a seamless leadership transition and long-term success.
Talent Pipeline
Companies often come to us with urgent recruitment needs, but we also provide strategic support for long-term talent development. We help build talent pipelines for high-volume roles, future skill needs, or diversity in strategic positions. By taking a proactive approach, we ensure you have an engaged, hirable pool of talent ready when needed. Our team works closely with you to identify future talent needs and develop external pipelines that complement internal talent pools. We partner with Talent Acquisition and leadership to engage, assess, and coach talent until the time is right for them to join your organization.
Assessments
We take a holistic approach to evaluating candidates, going beyond standard interviews and reference checks to offer deeper insights into their capabilities, motivations, and cultural alignment. Rather than just hiring for “culture fit,” we focus on “culture add,” ensuring diverse perspectives and fresh thinking that enhance team dynamics and innovation. Our assessment tools provide a comprehensive view of each candidate’s potential to contribute both now and in the future. We help you select the right tools for a thorough evaluation, enabling informed hiring decisions, and offer ongoing support through customized development plans for your team.
PEOPLE ADVISORY
People Strategy
Many HR strategies fail to clearly demonstrate their value to the organization. A strong people strategy should be aligned with the business strategy, employee needs, and market trends, focusing on empowering talent and leadership while driving business performance. Our approach to People Strategy integrates insights from the business, employees, and market trends to create a tailored strategy. By working closely with key stakeholders and leveraging market expertise, we ensure your HR strategy supports and drives organizational growth and success.
Talent Management
Talent should be viewed as a collective network driving business value, rather than focusing solely on individual capabilities. Traditional, rigid talent management approaches are outdated. Instead, organizations should adopt an agile, transparent, and value-based strategy integrated across the employee and organizational life cycle. This approach promotes a more equitable, merit-based system where employees excel based on skills and contributions. We assist organizations in developing or optimizing their talent strategies using a data-driven, culturally aligned approach that connects individual growth with broader business goals, fostering continuous improvement and engagement.
Employee Experience
Creating a workplace where employees feel valued, motivated, and engaged is crucial but challenging for many organizations. Our employee experience services focus on improving job satisfaction, productivity, and retention by crafting strategies that foster a supportive, inspiring environment. Using employee experience analytics, we identify growth areas and provide actionable insights. Our approach helps build a thriving culture that attracts and retains top talent, reduces turnover, and enhances overall performance, creating workplaces where everyone can flourish.
Strategic Workforce Management
Answering whether a workforce is fit for the future is challenging but essential for aligning HR initiatives with business strategy. A well-executed strategic workforce management program addresses key HR practices like recruitment, rewards, learning, succession management, and diversity, ensuring they meet the organization’s long-term needs. Our program helps HR identify workforce gaps and create interventions to close them. We assist in building a strategic workforce management practice, co-creating a playbook with frameworks, templates, and training to support this effort.
Operating Model
Organizations need a well-defined operating model to align strategy with execution. High-performance organizations succeed when people, processes, rewards, structure, and strategy are fully aligned. Often, design changes needed for transformation are overlooked, leading to internal confusion. Our services help HR, Transformation, and Business leaders design and implement effective operating models. We focus on engaging employees, reducing costs, and increasing productivity, ensuring successful strategy implementation and goal achievement.
Work Technology
The future of work is being transformed by HR technology, shifting the focus from operational efficiency to strategic enablement for organizational success. Many organizations struggle to fully unlock the potential of their technology due to failed implementations and concerns about integration, data security, and bias. To overcome these challenges, it’s essential to define business needs clearly and identify where HR technology adds true value. Our approach simplifies this process, helping organizations navigate HR technology complexities and focus on delivering impactful, strategic outcomes. We provide tailored services to build a strategic roadmap, enhance stakeholder confidence, and maximize technology investments.
People Analytics
While organizations have vast data, the challenge is transforming it into actionable insights to drive employee wellbeing and performance. HR is increasingly expected to handle data management, reporting, AI, modeling, and workforce management. Building a strong People Analytics practice is essential for growth. With expert guidance, we provide a customized roadmap to achieve analytical maturity, including upskilling HR teams to effectively use data in their daily operations.
HR Upskilling & Reskilling
The evolving world of work demands a balance between technology and human-centered experiences. HR leaders must navigate new opportunities in areas like Talent Attraction, Talent Management, and Rewards, translating them into business value. To achieve this, HR professionals need to step back from daily routines, reflect on external insights, and adapt strategies accordingly. KennedyFitch offers HR upskilling programs to help HR leaders and teams stay updated on trends, gain new perspectives, and enhance functional expertise.
LEADERSHIP & TRANSFORMATION
Leadership Development
Leaders today face constant challenges that require them to adapt and grow. Success isn’t just about having the right skills; it’s about navigating the complexities of the organization and responding to changing business demands.
Leadership development is a journey, and we’re here to support your people along the way. Our programs are designed to address the specific challenges your organization faces, ensuring your leaders can create meaningful impact. Whether through our signature Development Program or a customized approach tailored to your company’s unique culture and goals, we help you develop leaders who inspire, influence, and make a real difference at every level.
Purpose & Culture
A clear company identity, centered around a core purpose, is essential for long-term business success. To become truly purpose-driven, companies must align their vision, values, and employee behaviors with this purpose. Successful organizations inspire their employees by deeply embedding this sense of purpose, leading to higher engagement, improved performance, and talent retention. Through assessments, workshops, and strategic planning, businesses can integrate purpose into their culture, driving overall success.
Organizational Effectiveness
Is your organization struggling with inefficiencies that hinder growth and innovation? Our organizational effectiveness practice helps HR leaders, business leaders, and change managers optimize processes, structures, and systems. Through in-depth assessments, process mapping, and strategic recommendations, we identify opportunities to streamline operations, boost productivity, and align resources with your goals. Our proven approach increases efficiency, reduces costs, and enhances employee engagement, driving long-term success.
Change Management
Successful change depends on supporting teams through transitions, as people—not systems—drive organizational change. To achieve desired outcomes, organizations must focus on helping employees adopt new ways of working by addressing their emotional and behavioral needs. A human-centered change management approach, involving active leadership, daily demonstration of new methods, and strong team support, ensures that employees thrive during transitions. This approach enhances engagement, performance, and productivity. By partnering with organizations, we develop customized change management plans based on data-driven insights, ensuring that change initiatives align with specific goals and culture.
