Our Process

"It's not a transaction. It's a relationship."

This statement is the heartbeat of AGORA's process, and what sets us apart from nearly every other search firm. We aren't in the business of placing job-seekers. We start with the client - gaining a deep, insightful understanding of the organization's precise needs - and work hard to find them the best possible candidates for their leadership positions.

A simple understanding of our process reveals 4 insightful phases:
