Hiring a new CEO is one of the most destabilizing actions a business can do. 
Replacing your original founder CEO, or quickly trying to replace a CEO who has
left on short notice requires that a unique plan be implemented. Making the
right choice fast is important. In this guide, I show you How to Hire a
world-class CEO and how using executive search can help solve a problem as

How To Hire a CEO Guide
Robert worked with me on a very confidential executive search for a "niche"
business where candidates needed a very specific background and type of business
experience. It was a difficult search as the potential candidate pool was small
and we needed to fill the position quickly. I found that Robert's responsiveness
and collaboration with me throughout the search enabled us to find a great
candidate. I enjoyed working with him and would definitely give my
recommendation to anyone needing his executive search services.

George GrebHR Director
Robert is on my very short list of best recruiters I have worked with in my
career. I first met him in the course of a search he was conducting for Polar
USA. His attention to detail is excellent and his commitment to clear, timely
and open communication is exceptional. Robert delivers on his commitments and
did an excellent job of serving his client's interests very well while at the
same time cultivating an excellent relationship with candidates.

Tom FowlerBoard Member/ President
I have had a pleasure to work with Robert on a couple of occasions during the
past couple of years. He always comes thoroughly prepared into meetings, but
adapts flexibily in case there is a need to switch tactics. Every project has
been completed professionally, with excellent results and on time. During the
projects Robert always was extremely helpful and resourceful in finding
solutions and ways forward. He can work effectively and smoothly over the time
zone and geographical boundaries. Robert is a pleasure to work with because of
his can-do, yet flexible attitude.

Marju LuomaVP HR
Roberts senior management understanding, combined with his strong skillset ,
passion and dedication gives solid results when searching for the best talent
/candidate. Robert follows the search closely and upon completion, he ensures
that the performance and compatibilities match. He is well connected and able to
attract capable candidates.

Jan AnkersenSenior VP
I recommend Robert to anyone seeking to fill a key role in their organization.
Having worked with Robert, it is very evident that he devotes a lot time and
energy learning about the needs of the organization and identifying the key
traits and skills needed for success. Robert is highly professional and a great
communicator.

MY STORY

Hi, I’m Robert Travis. I’m a Managing Partner at Boyden and have 25+ years of
experience in executive search. Based in North America, I have helped many
companies find senior leadership for their businesses. From individual leaders
to whole leadership teams for companies establishing new branches of their
business abroad.

I have helped develop many regional offices get established, either personally
or by putting together specialized search teams to help companies conduct
complex searches at a regional or global level.

Given the wealth of experience, I have gained in my journey, many of my peers,
team members, and clients come to me for help conducting their searches. I felt
compelled to create this blog to help spread that information further and help
people find great talent.
