Leadership for Tomorrow’s Workforce

Navigating the Complexities of Human Behavior

Predicting Candidate Success is a Science, Not Guesswork

Hiring executives is a complex science that should go beyond basic interviews to make the correct decision. You have decided to hire your next leader. The task is daunting, the selection process is overwhelming, and asking questions often leads to more confusion vs. facts to help you make the best long-term decision.

At Level 5, we offer assistance beyond an accepted offer. We provide ongoing support because we understand that true corporate success starts where most executive search consulting firms stop. Research proves the more you know about your next executive, the greater the odds of long-term success. In fact, our studies have concluded that we can improve productivity metrics by up to 67%, and with full leader transition assistance, we can achieve up to a 90 % productivity gain.

Level 5 Consulting

PhD Led Integration and Consulting Offerings

  • Team interviews to determine cultural fit

    Designing critical questions specific to a person’s responsibilities is the first step to ensure longevity. At Level 5 Partners, we will create questions that are appropriate for the interviewer and the candidate, with each interviewer addressing a specific area of competency.

  • Interview guides and templates

    Our library bank of questions will be carefully tailored to each client and specific search project.

  • Interview library

    For high-growth clients, we will develop a library of questions to be used repetitively against specific searches. This step will reduce conscious and unconscious bias and work towards addressing an organization’s DE&I goals.

  •  Assessments

    Interviewing generally yields only what the candidate chooses to say or do during an interview. Our Ph.D. assessment team will help the client understand the bright side and dark side of each individual. Results will be professionally communicated so you, the client, can be better informed about your next hire.

  • Candidate background research (written report)

    Background checks are standard

    Board Level research: Level 5 Partners knows that “check-the-box” general background checks do not always tell the entire story. Our research goes beyond traditional inquiries. When requested, our researchers will build a complete report that will address the board of director mandates for compliance requirements.

  • Predictive consulting output

    Making the investment to hire a search consultant is only the tip of the iceberg. Our PhD led team has learned that not only is it critical to assess the candidates in process, but it is equally as important to assess the employees that will be working closely with the new hire. Ensuring a 360-degree view will align expectations and remove hidden barriers after hire.

  • 30-90-180 day leadership guidance

    The majority of search firms see their job as finished at day 1 hire. At Level 5 Partners, we believe that the first several months of induction set the tone for long-term success and growth for the client and candidate. Our services provide not only “certified PhD” coaching but also consulting at periodic intervals to address any challenges or obstacles that may develop after hire.

  • ESG, DE&I & Resilence

    Cultural differences exist whether we admit it or not. At Level 5 Partners, our PHD consultants can design and lead a variety of courses to enhance early career employees to feel better about the companies they work for their leaders and ultimately perform at elevated levels with lower attrition.
