Teamhunting

Do you want to set up new business divisions or service new industries?
Do you ask yourself why your competitor’s sales are “always one step ahead?”
Or why your new products are always launched a “little bit too late” onto the market?

Now we can react to the above questions with Direct Search by experts but the success is not shaped by individuals but instead through teamwork:
“Ultimately, we can reduce all economic processes to three words: people, products and profit. People are the first priority. It is not possible to do a lot with the other two if you do not have a good team.” Lee Iacocca, 1924, American Top Manager

Another alternative would be company acquisitions (M&A) but these are generally time-consuming and expensive and carry significant risks.
Let’s take a look at the Teamhunting, Direct Search and M&A options in SWOT analyses:
