In executive search, at times, whether candidates on a shortlist will live up to their promise and fit seamlessly within your organisation is left largely up to chance.

In starting ONE(n²a) we asked ourselves how we can go about reducing any uncertainty that can potentially plague the executive search process.

We answered this question with BEYOND™,  
a scientifically proven process that achieves an over 90% correlation between predicted and actual team success.

How does it work?
‍
We measure what can't be faked, focussing on a person's unique attributes and instincts, as well as how they do what they do..

We reverse the standard executive search process.

First, we assess your organisation by looking at leaders and the team the talent would work alongside, to make sure their personality and working style are compatible.

This is because research shows that unsuccessful placements are rarely due to a candidate’s skillset or level of experience, but more commonly due to clashes in working style and company culture.

Then our profiler, one of only 20 in the world, develops a portrait of the perfect candidate that goes well beyond just skills and experience.

It includes personality archetypes and leadership attributes required to complement the existing team.

Only then do we do what others call

“executive search”

Testing and retesting to fit with the criteria.

Using this methodology we don’t just match you with someone who we believe there is probable cause for you to hire.

We empower you with all the information you need to make your decision beyond a reasonable doubt.

Your decision about that executive who will fit into your organisation like an infinitesimal grain of sand, into an impeccably formed dune.
