MATERIAL IMPACT

The most successful companies achieve major breakthroughs with just a small percent of people who drive growth and results. These elite individuals are Material Impact Executives. They are highly sought after and difficult to recruit because they are fully-engaged in delivering results for their companies and already operating at a high level of performance and achievement. They are — in essence — considered the unrecruitable. Great companies dominate their markets because of them, and struggling companies flounder because they lack them.

We only recruit these executives and our continued success is based upon our ability to deliver these executives by transcending any obstacle. We never underestimate the challenge and urgency searches present, and consistently achieve results through tenacity, mutual trust and passion for our work.

Our continued success is founded on these principles:

Repeatable Results - We are results-driven. Our enterprise-wide successes have defined us as the leading retained search firm in North America. Success means we identify, recruit, and close. We never confuse effort with outcome.

Focus - Our experience and relationships across the entire technology value-chain give us unsurpassed precision and speed in our searches. Our sense of urgency is surpassed only by our relentless pursuit of excellence.

Intolerance - Mediocrity is not tolerated; we consistently exceed our clients' expectations by recruiting the unrecruitable executive. In every search we deliver value and competitive advantage above the bar.

General Atlantic has had a long-standing relationship with Daversa Partners. We view them as an important strategic partner to many of our companies. The firm has been critical in attracting many of our most successful executives and has been able to resource from a diverse range of companies. The team at Daversa Partners takes the time to thoughtfully diligence a company and develops a keen understanding of what the characteristics of a person need to be for any given situation. They are thoughtful and detail oriented, and you know whomever you hire is going to do the work themselves and not pass it on. Daversa Partners is careful about the projects they take on, and make tremendous resource commitment to complete their work in a very timely manner, bringing only the most qualified candidates to be evaluated.
