Lyceum has revolutionized the executive recruitment search process with our innovative approach that seamlessly integrates search methodologies with our robust media capabilities. Our unique Search Reimagined® process is tailored to each client’s needs, ensuring a superior and efficient recruitment experience to deliver top-tier talent.
Our Approach
At Lyceum, we specialize in revolutionizing board searches, executive recruitment, identification, integration, and development tailored for clients within the energy, industrial manufacturing, and services sectors. As a boutique firm, we merge superior search processes with media capabilities, ensuring faster and more effective results than larger search firms. Our Search Reimagined® process delivers unparalleled value by enhancing talent acquisition and elevating decision-making in candidate selection.
Search Reimagined® Podcast
As part of our search process, we produce an audio media interview featuring leaders such as the hiring manager, CEO, and/or chair of the board. Candidates gain insight into our client’s strategic opportunities, risks, culture, and the imperatives for the role directly through the perspectives of the company’s leadership.
Access to Candidates
We have access through our search technology platforms to over 1.8 million detailed and regularly updated executive and director profiles across 2.3 million organizations. Our platforms reveal overlapping network connections that enhance our ability to leverage our broad networks to identify, and the reach of our media to attract, exceptional leaders better and faster than traditional search firms.
Psychometric Evaluations of Finalist Candidates
These instruments, when applied, interpreted, and coupled with Lyceum’s competency-based evaluations, formulate a powerful assessment methodology and provide further substantiation of a candidate’s abilities to execute for results, develop strategy, lead teams, build relationships, and collaborate and influence. Moreover, it also provides insight into leadership potential of candidates based on their learning agility and critical thinking capacity.
Transparent Pricing Structure
We fix our professional fees based on the complexity of the search and not on the compensation of the candidate. Our clients can budget with clarity and predictability. And we act as a true agent, advocating for our client’s interest during salary negotiations. Our fee structure ensures our objectivity. We have no financial incentive tied to candidate compensation. We are impartial to internal or external hires.
Strategic Intake Interviews
We conduct upfront intensive intake interviews to understand the business and strategic context that warrant the functional and situational experiences ideally sought in the executive. This begins with in-depth Intake Interviews with key company executives and board members as deemed appropriate.
Rigorous Assessment Methodology
We employ a rigorous executive candidate assessment process through behavioral based interviewing in which we evaluate candidates against the role specification and leadership competencies, and seek fitness with our client’s culture and values. We validate our findings through 360-degree referencing.
Comprehensive Project Planning
We complete our projects on a collectively planned date certain. We develop customized project plans tailored to our client’s specific needs and schedule, ensuring clarity and alignment from contracting to closing. Through frequent periodic status updates that propel along agreed-upon milestones, we ensure timely, efficient, and effective outcomes.
Client Interview Guide
Lyceum develops an Interview Guide that provides common criteria for evaluating across candidates. The proven, competency-based questions in the guide reveal degrees of executive capability. The guide goes further to facilitate a consultative discussion with candidates through a “turning the tables” section featuring headline issues, opportunities, and key challenges for the company.
