Jason Walker

My career successes, even before I pivoted into Executive Search & Human Capital Advisory, were all enabled by trying to better understand people and what excites them, scares them, and inspires them, to ultimately do my best to help them get where they want to go. It's been a lifelong passion for me and it is something I keep front and center in everything I do. No matter the business relationship, it all starts with building enough trust to get people to open up about what their most ambitious dreams are, and then working back to how achieving our common, near-term business objectives can support their journey towards those dreams. And sometimes there's not much of a path to connect those things, but the foundation to us all getting on the track we want to be on is that process of honest discovery. 

So it seems only natural that I would find my way into helping clients attract, develop, and retain great people. Getting to do that while having the opportunity to also do those things for my own people inside my own firm is the most rewarding thing I have experienced in my career.
