With ART, you do not need
to use multiple recruiters to reach multiple
countries. There is no need to get on planes to
interview recruiters in multiple cities. ART covers
most all key global markets, so we can save your
firm time and money, while bringing you some of the
world's best senior managers quickly and
efficiently.
ART is one of the few
executive search firms globally that is
region-neutral in approach. We recruit in most major
markets and have done so for many years. This is why
companies based in North America, Europe,
Asia-Pacific, the Mideast, Latin America and
Africa all look to ART to find senior managers
for both their home countries and for their key
postings abroad. Our clients understand that we are
targeting a very specialized group of globally
minded managers and leaders who
understand their needs, as well as those of their
local customers, suppliers and staff.
We see the global
economy as a unity that demands top local managers
who think globally, while being highly competent at
cultivating their respective local markets. The
people whom we recruit for posts outside of our
clients' home countries must be like human bridges
able to connect easily
across oceans of differences. They must
understand the employer's business culture and needs
as their own, while also successfully connecting to
local staff and customers in their own country.
Our Searches can start
with the Best Local Candidates before we expand the
search radius, unless you tell us otherwise. For us
to broaden a search, no special delays are caused,
because ART is an executive search firm
that recruits without regard for borders,
as this is the reality of today's global
economy.
Global Success comes
only when you have the right people in the right
places
Think of ART as your
firm's guide to new business opportunities around
the world. Too many companies - even billion dollar
firms - are slow to venture beyond their home
countries. They know that the opportunities around
the world are vast, but simply because they do not
have knowledgeable executives familiar with the
target countries, often years and infinite lost
opportunities pass them by. Their competitors,
meanwhile, are already there. Sometimes firms that
are operating overseas are doing so very
ineffectively.
Our
job is to help your firm find top people who can
build your operations or sales in other countries.
Our staff is highly internationally oriented and we
appreciate and respect the differences between
countries and cultures, and when we conduct your
search, we seek to find candidates who can serve as
intelligent and dynamic bridges between business
cultures. We have done so successfully for startup
firms, fast growing medium sized firms, as well as
for multi-billion dollar firms.
World-Class
management candidates on six continents, in over
100 countries
Regardless of region,
industry, or job title, our candidates tend to be
highly results oriented, unbureaucratic managers.
Their approach to business usually might be
characterized as localized versions of
"American management style." They are all fully
fluent in English, and most candidates outside the
English-speaking countries are fully bilingual or
multilingual in the local or regional languages. A
significant proportion of our candidates have worked
for leading North American, European or Asian
multinationals. Many have received MBA's from
leading North American, European, or Asia- Pacific
business schools.
Candidates who can
communicate with your customers... and with you!
It is normally assumed
that ART candidates in Asia should be fluent in the
target Asian languages, that ART candidates in
Europe should be fluent in the target European
languages, that ART candidates in Latin America
should be fluent in either Spanish or Portuguese.
Most of our Mideast and Africa candidates are fluent
in languages suitable to the target market. Our goal
is to find people who understand your company's
business culture as well as that of the target
region. Our objective is always to find
someone whom you can trust to run your foreign
business efficiently and honestly.
We know what you
need and we never entrust your key search to
strangers
ART is proud that we
never partner with other recruitment companies in
any country, because in such cases, cost, quality
and timing usually can never really be guaranteed.
ART only accepts searches if we believe that we
ourselves can be successful in helping our clients,
and we work hard to please our clients with the
right candidates. People just having an office in
some city and calling themselves "recruiters" or
"headhunters" does not guarantee that
they actually understand your needs or even
that they are qualified to do executive search.
