We are deeply committed to supporting our clients’ journeys toward enhanced governance and informed boards. We achieve this through holistic leadership discovery and development services while continually refining our own governance structures and sustainability approach. We have partnered with The Sustainability Board Report, Sustainable Views, a division of The Financial Times, and sustainability leaders to develop thought leadership that increases the shared learnings for all of us.
These learning exchanges keep us at the forefront of change—they build impactful client relationships, improve our service offerings, and enhance our own internal governance.
Egon Zehnder is incorporated in Switzerland, and we adhere to its relevant corporate governance practices and requirements. Our six-member board, which reflects an equal gender split and representation across eight offices on three continents, sets the Firm's strategic direction, guided by Partner decisions while overseeing associated risks and opportunities.
Our Firm is owned by our Partners, and we have been committed to our Equal Partnership model since our founding in 1964, which we refer to as “One Firm.” Though we are composed of many individuals, we operate with a single, shared P&L. In addition to One Firm, our other Firm Values are Clients First, Generosity, Spirit of Ownership, and Embracing Differences.
