We are extremely gratified to have received many positive comments about our services from clients and candidates alike. A sampling of their remarks –
“[The Hagel team] did a fantastic job for us. The word that comes to mind when I think of them is "authentic" -- as opposed to some of the too-polished, too-mechanized national firms we interviewed when we were looking for a search firm.”
Client board member
“I wanted to thank you for a most enjoyable interview. You guys did a first class job!”
Candidate

Candidate
“As president of [our association board] one of the largest responsibilities of my role is overseeing the evaluation of the association’s executive director. This year, our association had the additional duty of negotiating a compensation package with the executive director, and extending the employment contract. Hagel & Company was highly recommended for guiding us through this process.
“[The firm’s principals] are thorough, credible and professional consultants. They researched our association and other executive director compensations from like organizations across the state and country. By conducting interviews with our board members and executive director they were able to understand our needs and goals for the future. Throughout the several months we worked together, they communicated regularly with me and completed all interim reports on time. Compensation is a highly sensitive subject and the discretion they exhibited was greatly appreciated. At the conclusion of their work they provided an in-depth presentation to the board of directors sharing their methodology and comprehensive findings and answered questions, all with respect for the work of our association.
“Hagel & Company was instrumental in allowing our board of directors to have the tools and perspective needed to make an informed, fair and professional compensation offer to the Executive Director. Thank you for guiding us through the process.”
Client board president

“Thank you for informing me of the position being filed. Your acknowledgment of my interest in the position is greatly appreciated. Through numerous interviews with other companies, I have found this is a level of respect few companies are willing to live by. This rare respect for people is a character quality sure to make your company stand high above the rest.” Candidate

Board members described your services as professional and successfully holding to the established schedule. The search materials were well prepared and the overall experience of the Board was very positive.” Client board chair
