Supervisory roles require more than experience alone. They call for leaders who align with an organisation’s strategic phase, its culture and the dynamics between governance and supervision. Lodiers & Partners supports organisations in identifying commissioners and supervisors who truly add value within the Supervisory Board, Board of Trustees or Advisory Board.
From family-owned businesses to publicly listed companies and private equity: our experience in executive leadership and supervisory roles is broad. This gives us a sharp understanding of the nuances between executive management and the Supervisory Board and Board of Trustees. We understand how the balance of forces operates, which expertise is required and which personalities make the difference.
Many years of experience with governance-related issues in family-owned businesses (such as succession, professionalisation, and the balance between ownership and management).
Professionalising supervisory bodies: guidance during the transition from an Advisory Board to a Supervisory Board, and the impact on collaboration as well as the distribution of roles and expertise.
Clear insight into the stage of growth or transformation an organisation is in, and the impact this has on the collaboration between executive management and supervision.
Private equity firms participate financially in a diverse portfolio of companies. Although their operational involvement varies widely, what they do have in common is their focus on making sure that the management team is able to increase the value of the company within ambitious frameworks. Result orientation and execution power are often essential competencies and specific knowledge and network in a branche are vital for management in those portfolio companies. Lodiers & Partners has been working with various private equity firms for many years and we have built up a successful track record, often our involvement is already requested in the due diligence process or as advisor of the selling owner/major shareholder.
We have a relevant and carefully built network of top candidates for Supervisory Boards and Advisory Boards. Our network includes not only experienced supervisory board members, but also emerging talent progressing from executive leadership roles into supervisory positions.
Our candidate network is extensive: many candidates we have known for years through previous searches and collaborations. This gives us clear insight into their personalities, leadership styles and the value they bring to the table. Together with stakeholders, we can therefore determine the profile required and identify candidates who demonstrably match those needs.
A carefully composed Supervisory Board strengthens an organisation’s strategic direction, serves as a sparring partner and sounding board, and contributes to stability, clarity and continuity. The composition of a Supervisory Board must align with an organisation’s strategic challenges. Lodiers & Partners therefore also considers sector-specific issues and themes that require targeted expertise, such as:
We find the right candidate for every supervisory role.
