“As a past corporate CEO and board member of several for profit and non-profit organizations, I have had multiple times in which I turned to Doran Leadership Partners to fill critical senior roles. Without exception, DLP found the best fit for each assignment. They invested in up-front understanding of each organization’s needs, strategic direction, growth goals and most importantly, the unique culture of each organization. The DLP team did its homework first, identified multiple qualified candidates and were able to help hire the top prospect. The DLP team has exceptional judgement in connecting an organization with truly the best leadership fit. I trust DLP 100% with my most demanding searches.”

“We had a fantastic experience with Doran Leadership Partners! We were particularly impressed with the cohesive work of the team. Nayana led our project, while Libby, Linda and Jared played active roles throughout and particularly during our regularly scheduled check-ins. They successfully identified a number of top-flight candidates within our region, as well as across the country. The DLP team went the extra mile in helping us thoroughly vet our final candidates. From our introductory, in-person team meetings to the final offer letter, we knew that the DLP team cared deeply about finding a successful candidate for our firm. We’re thankful and thrilled for the great work DLP did to find a great fit for our organization, and we’re even more thrilled to have found a partner who will help us grow into the future.”

When I arrived at my new role in San Antonio and needed to fill an open role on my executive team ASAP, DLP was a first call. They took the time to learn our organization and culture, brought fresh eyes to our situation and cast a wide net to identify top talent. I could not be more pleased with the process or the result.”
