Where Tenacity Meets Excellence

Diversity MUST begin at the top.
Ethnic and racial groups make up 40 percent of the US population but just 12.5 percent of board directors. Sadly, this is not a statistic from a bygone era. This is 2021. This book will help you understand the issues and solve the problems today.

With a keen ability for inquiry and innovation, Agility Executive Search challenges the boundaries set in a world of status quo. If you are looking for real results in an executive or board search, you’ve come to the right place.

We Start from Scratch

We treat each search with the same rigor and intensity as our first – we don’t take shortcuts or recycle the same lists and people from past searches.

We’re Willing to Learn

No two searches are ever the same. We don't rest on our laurels but instead continually evolve.

We Embrace Change

What has worked in the past is not necessarily right for the future. We thrive on transformation.

A Clear Approach

With over 23 years of experience, our Founder Patricia Lenkov has honed a process that yields excellent results in a timely matter.

No Two are the Same

Forget one-size-fits-all. We custom-tailor your search to your requirements. With open, unbiased eyes we seek out nothing short of the very best for your organization.

Satisfied clients in every industry speak to the success of our process and value the personalized service of a boutique firm with full-throttle skills, expertise and capacity.

With hundreds of successful board and C-level searches behind us we’re able to bring a seasoned approach to your search. Active engagement and taking the time to really understand your organization are the cornerstones of a search that works in the short term and stands the test of time.
