Why Korn Ferry acquired Patina
Today’s workspace is being transformed before our eyes. Professionals are on the move, Boomers are retiring and career nomads are looking for change – early and often. What previously was a 10-year career horizon, has narrowed to five years or even just two or three. This combination presents tangible opportunity for Korn Ferry and our clients looking for the right talent, who are highly agile, with specialized skills and expertise to help them drive superior performance, including on an interim basis.
The professionals Patina deploys to its clients have deep, functional and/or industry experience with the know-how to achieve important outcomes. Seasoned professionals provide maximum agility for Patina’s clients so they can quickly respond to changes in their business condition.
Intentional in our quest to be the world leader serving all executive, professional and interim solutions recruiting for our clients, Patina strengthens this critical and growing market need.
