Your people help define your brand, your company. They contribute to the culture and success of the business. Because you lead, you recognize when the talent needs to be enhanced or improved, when a change is needed.

Because you're a thought leader and you approach things differently, when choosing a person you don't always go with the obvious, run-of-the-mill choice. We understand that. That's also why you choose to work with SGES. Why? We open the windows and let the air in.

Why work with Us?

• An Open Style
  At SGES, we are accessible and want to be. We don't hide behind a facade of mystery. Everything you want to know is explained in a way so that you can feel more comfortable. A glimpse of our open style can be seen in the explanation of the details of the search process included in this site for your benefit.


• We Don't Lose Steam
  You don't give up, neither do we. We have an enthusiasm and passion for our work that extends throughout the entire process of your search project, from beginning to end and afterward. You won't find us slowing down after a couple of potential "perfect fits" have been found. SGES has a single-minded determination to find the best people for you until someone is hired or the project has been put on pause. And, afterward, we work with you so that that someone stays in their position and that both you and the new hire are happy with your decision - that there is no buyer's remorse on either side.


• You're a Handful
  We only work with a very select few at a time: a very small number of projects and consulting clients. Because of this limit, it means we truly want to work with you. You should expect attention from us and as a result, we will give it. And, it is really about you, not so much about us.


• You Seek a Different Style
  We know who we are: we're not big talkers, we are listeners who are direct in our communication style. We listen to you. We listen to the candidates. We appreciate intelligence and creativity. Our brains are always at work. We approach our work emotionally and intellectually combining creative with facts. We pursue lots of paths because the traditional is not always the best choice as we have discovered ourselves. We try to offer an industry alternative.


• The World Doesn't Revolve Around Us
  SGES is committed to the world around us in protecting our environment whenever possible. We try to be as paperless as possible and reuse previously printed pages. Our website is powered by 100% wind energy. When our computers aren't active, they are turned off.


• Giving Back
  Recent changes in our world remind us everyone is important. If you would like to affect the greater community as well as your own organization, you are in good company. We desire to give back to the community and help others less fortunate benefit from our services. SGES donates a percentage of each fee we receive to a non-profit. By working with us, you are helping them. While other search firms may feel similarly, to our knowledge we are the only such firm that has this type of commitment to a single charity.
