ZURICH, March 24, 2025
Egon Zehnder, the premier global leadership advisory and executive search firm, reports global revenues of CHF 804 million for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2024, representing a 5.4% increase over 2023 when adjusted for comparable exchange rates. The firm also expanded its global footprint by hiring over 60 new consultants and adding offices in Basel, Vancouver and Dresden.
According to Francesco Buquicchio, Egon Zehnder’s CEO, “Our positive financial results for FY 2024 are a testament to our strong focus on our clients and continued investment in our people. In this climate of heightened complexity, we deeply believe in developing the potential in leaders and leveraging curiosity as a driving force to generate impact.”
In a year marked by global crises, geopolitical tensions, and disruptive trends, Egon Zehnder achieved a 9% growth in demand for its leadership advisory services. This surge aligns with a global trend where 95% of CEOs anticipate even more groundbreaking, systemic changes over the next decade. These leaders are embracing greater societal responsibility and striving to foster a culture of curiosity and openness within their organizations, according to our recent CEO study.
“Looking ahead, we remain focused on our purpose of leadership for a better world, helping top leaders navigate unprecedented circumstances by applying strategic empathy—a curiosity that reaches beyond industries, paired with an ability to connect the dots between business, politics, and society, which is mission critical for organizations today,” said Michael Ensser, Executive Chair of Egon Zehnder.
