Building Value with Leadership Excellence for Finding Top Talent

As the world emerges from the global pandemic, competition for hiring talent in executive positions is more intensive in healthcare than in any other sector. The lack of talented and high-performing executives at the helm can significantly affect a healthcare organization’s efficiency, growth, and outcomes. As such, finding high-performing candidates who can fulfill the specific requirements, meet the performance expectations, and keep pace with the rapidly changing healthcare environment is paramount.

In their hunt for leadership talent, healthcare organizations are increasingly looking for personalized services that go in sync with their needs rather than a one size fits all approach, which traditional executive research firms often adopt. This brings Kingsley Rose, an Indiana based boutique executive research firm, into the picture.

Known for time-proven industry expertise that focuses on an organization’s strategic and operational needs, Kingsley Rose has been recognized since its establishment in 2003 as a reliable solution provider for companies in finding the right talent. The firm caters to senior-C-Suite level executives, CSO, CIO’s, CFO’s CEOs, and board position placements and is changing the narrative of executive hiring by performing beyond a mere recruiter. They serve both the Health Systems and the Vendors that sell to Health Systems. “Our mission is to bring the best talents to the best companies and provide a memorable experience for clients and candidates alike,” remarks Joe Huffine, founder and CEO of Kingsley Rose.

Large health systems and private equity firms often turn to Kingsley Rose versus the big search firms because of its speed along with a strong focus on good project management, technology, processes, and a talented team. Kingsley Rose reviewed a number of the best practices across the recruitment industry. The company has formulated a six sigma proprietary process that employs more than 56 different steps to complete a search. “Our methodology allows consistent results to exceed expectations,” adds Huffine.

What makes Kingsley Rose the clients’ favorite is its process to continually get feedback and rank top candidates in the market. During each talent search assignment, the Kingsley Rose team ranks the top employees and stores the information in their customer relationship management database. This database enables the team to stay in touch through emails and quarterly updates on key positions.

Another unique differentiator is the entrepreneurial flair that runs in the company. The private equity firms and CEOs like the fact that the founder has built and sold two companies before running Kingsley Rose. The entrepreneurial background of its founder enables Kingsley Rose to provide extra value add versus working with a traditional recruiter. The company’s client engagement process begins with creating great questions against each requirement. They then touch thousands of people within the first week or two to build a big pipeline to choose from.

The expertise and commitment that Kingsley Rose demonstrates in uncovering the ideal talent are testified in the surfeit of success stories and the steady growth that the company has garnered over the years. “We expect massive growth in our business in the next three to five years. Health systems are liking the entrepreneurial approach versus the traditional big firms,” Huffine signs off.
