The main challenge facing companies today is in finding excellent leadership teams. Excellent leadership encourages and stimulates growth. We support our clients – partners in the creation of success, both for their businesses and for our society.

OUR CORE VALUES

PASSION
A passion to excel drives everything we do. In partnership with our many stakeholders, we endeavour to share our passion for our business and our entrepreneurial drive – as well as our passion for attracting the right people to help clients meet the challenges of the future.

OPENNESS
Open communication between clients, candidates, and our own partners is what we strive for. This involves transparency, honesty, and authenticity. Simply put, we state the facts. From this, we inspire mutual trust and build solid long-term partnerships. Openness also reflects back on ourselves, time and again challenging us all to develop and grow.

CO-OPERATION
Co-operation is the cornerstone of our relationships with clients; listening attentively to their needs, searching for the achievable, and finding the right solutions. For our candidates, co-operation means candid and sincere advice, thoughtful guidance, as well as responsiveness – mapping out the career development path for each candidate individually. We also promote co-operation within our team of motivated players, continuously striving to share expertise, knowledge and best practice.

INNOVATION
Innovation means progress – keeping an eye on the future. As an executive search partner we aim to help our clients meet their objectives in every way we can. Innovation is a business imperative: we continuously seek to challenge our thinking and methodology in order to offer fresh approaches, and to respond to the rapidly evolving markets in which our clients operate. Our diversity mindset here at Schelstraete Delacourt Associates makes us your trusted adviser and partner.
