You people partner in talent growth and coaching.
let's talk higher ed.
Talent | case study:
12 years after one of EnterGain's managing directors advised a group of CEOs to form a trade association, one of the organization's board members came back and asked for guidance on CEO succession for the growing influential association. Within 4 weeks of commencing the search, the board was meeting their first round of candidates. After meeting a total of 12 highly qualified candidates by the 2nd month of the search, our managing director was invited to attend the client's board retreat where he facilitated the final selection and offer process. The hired CEO has since relied on EnterGain for guidance and action on organization design, change, total rewards and talent management.
gain: Talent.
Executive Search & Placement
We partner with board members, CEOs, CXOs and CHROs to attract and retain the best VP through C-level talent. We access targeted talent quickly and discretely. We fill senior roles in operations, HR, tech, marketing, sales and finance.
Capability | Case Study
One of EnterGain's managing directors spearheaded the development of a series of learning, mentoring, leadership and communication initiatives for a global public company. The initiatives were all carefully aligned with the needs of the organization's transformation to a digital services company. Our managing director led a process with leaders and staff that included discovery and needs assessment, ideation and curricula development, beta testing with select employee populations and real time surveys and measurement, followed by final tweaks and coordinated implementation with multiple facilitators across divisions and locations.
gain: Scale.

Leadership & Talent Development
We deliver executive learning solutions that bring out the excellence in everyone. Develop agility and consistency you can count on. Shape the skills and behaviors that drive measurable results.
Scale | Case Study
An EnterGain managing director was recommended to the founder of an enterprise software startup. The client founder and his 3 seed investors engaged us to attract additional team members, and transform the business plan to include a software product targeted to the HR market. Within 2 months, the client asked our principal to take on an interim C-level role. Within 6 months, our principal implemented full HR support, ramped up a 20 person cross functional team, completed a business plan that raised $2.5M, negotiated an endorsement agreement with a major athlete, implemented Salesforce.com and led 60 new client relationship wins.
Values & Infrastructure
Maximize potential by clarifying direction and managing organizational capacity. Unify vision, and remove obstacles. Focus on activity that captures demand and delivers quality. Make results repeatable, and scale sustainable.

"As a small non-profit organization, having EnterGain as our outsourced HR department has been invaluable. For all of our recruiting, including senior level staff, having their expertise has saved us time and given us a wider pool of candidates. They give us the additional security of advising us on all HR matters and they have been very responsive."
