The economic outlook for many areas of industry has been growing, and most studies agree that C-suite job opportunities and board seat availability remain moderately strong.*
Companies are seeking C-suite leaders and board members who have a greater understanding of technology, financial management, and culture shaping.
Communicating your value proposition in both oral and written form is critical to the success of your C-level executive career transition. A cursory glance of your executive resume made by a key decision-maker will result in a set perception of your potential value—and once established, it is difficult to alter. This is the principal reason many C-suite executives and those seeking board roles will hire an executive resume writer to design their documents.
