Why Pappas DeLaney?

1. Our emphasis on cultural fit. Cultural fit — not skills or experience — is the single greatest factor in determining an executive hire's long-term effectiveness. While competing firms pay lip service to culture, everything we do begins from our recognition that effective culture drives effective business performance.
       
2. Our holistic approach to the life-cycle of an executive's tenure (from recruitment, to development, to transition). This approach gives us unique insight into how best to foster the long-term success of executives and management teams.
       
3. Our innovative Paraclete™ executive transition service. This one-of-a-kind service goes where traditional outplacement approaches can't and don't. Paraclete helps clients ease underperforming executives out of their businesses quickly, cost-effectively, and in a manner that preserves the dignity of all parties.
       
4. Our commitment to leaving clients better off than when we found them. No other firm we know of places as much emphasis as we do on equipping clients to succeed after the engagement.
       
5. Our deep understanding of the concerns and challenges of mid-market companies. Pappas Delaney's leadership team approaches every engagement with the expertise we've culled from decades of experience in improving the performance of businesses and their executives.
        
6. Our ability to leverage innovative, new approaches and time-tested methods. We believe that many traditional processes for executive search, development and transition are simply no longer effective in today's marketplace. Our success on behalf of clients springs from our ability to blend new, more effective approaches (such as our Perfect Candidate methodology) with conventional methods that have stood the test of time.
