There is not a company in the world that doesn’t feel the urgency for digital transformation. But that doesn’t mean that every company has the right leadership for the journey.
True digital transformation is driven from the core of the organization and takes place at every level of the organization. From strategic to tactical, from the boardroom to the work floor, every level requires a customized solution, and customization requires specialists. Each with her/his own knowledge, digital experience and specialism.
This starts with a thorough leadership assessment of the leaders and their teams, mapping the skills and experience gaps, to later embark on an executive search strategy to find those leaders who do have the required digital skills and experience.
Amrop’s Digital Practice Team has deep technology and digital knowledge, combining functional and sector experience, a global approach and valuable insights on local talent markets. We leverage our own digital tools and systems, including our dedicated Client Portal and Amrop’s Digital Competency Model.
Amrop helps you select and assess the right leaders to move your organization forward on its digital transformation journey. Our dedicated teams execute executive search assignments for recruiting board members, senior management, digital leaders like CIO’s or CTO’s, security officers, CDO’s and heads of application management or IT operations.
The tension between the CIO's priorities of enabling business objectives through technology and the CISO's of maintaining a robust security posture, can be especially challenging.
