Senior Research Consultant, Alex Coste, passes AESC qualification

We are delighted to report that our Senior Research Consultant, Alex Coste, has just passed the AESC (ERA) qualification and gained very positive feedback from the examiner.

The AESC’s Certificate in Executive Research programme is a widely recognised qualification within the executive researchprofession and covers all aspects of the research life cycle.

We at Henley have consistently encouraged and sponsored our team members to complete the training course and to gain the qualification. It is a great achievement for them as individuals and serves to reassure our clients we are working to the highest professional standards.

Five members of our current team are AESC qualified.

Balancing data protection and our role in providing insight and great candidates

Back in the months leading up to 25 May 2018, like many firms involved in recruitment and executive search, we at Henley Research spent months ensuring we were ready for the big day and truly GDPR compliant. We took it all very seriously, and still do, because the protection and integrity of individuals’ personal data is vital.

In one of our regular training sessions for recent starters in our Henley team earlier this week, we spoke at length about our many policies and processes and I came out of the session feeling quite proud of the robustness of our GDPR approach.

If you deal with us as a client or candidate you should be confident that we are fully committed to data protection and have in no way relaxed any of these in the last four years.

At the same time, we are fully committed also to providing as much insight as we can to those same clients and candidates, so there are always judgements to be made to get the right balance. I hope we are getting this about right!

For further information on our approach to data protection, please get in contact.

ERA Conference promises to be stimulating and informative

ERA Conference promises to be stimulating and informative

The Executive Research Association (ERA) Annual Conference takes place in London on Thursday 12 May and promises to be thought-provoking and informative, with a superb line-up of speakers and a range of relevant topics. Henley Managing Director, Mark Senior, will chair the Conference for the last time before stepping down from his Co-Chair role held for eight years:

“Whilst checking in with the speakers prior to the event, I am genuinely excited to hear what they all have to say. We will hear about D&I, women on boards, and how to find diverse candidates. Also about how Talent Intelligence and Talent Attraction functions have become established and work together at Paypal. There is a Mindfulness session, and practical sessions around best practice for executive researchers – we want delegates to be entertained, and also to have valuable take aways on the day. The sessions from the ERA’s gold sponsors, Cluen and Talentis, also promise to be stimulating. A great programme overall.”

Henley Research International’s research consultants will be attending the Conference.
