Professional services firms face unique leadership challenges: managing partner economics, developing and retaining talent, and driving growth in intensely competitive markets. Harvard Group International's professional services practice serves consulting firms, law firms, accounting firms, and other professional services organizations.

Our professional services team includes consultants with backgrounds in consulting and professional services who know partnership dynamics and professional services business models. We have experience placing managing partners, practice leaders, and functional executives across professional services.

We know that professional services leadership requires a different skill set: the ability to build practices, develop client relationships, manage peers, and maintain the technical credibility that underlies professional services. Our assessment methodology is designed to identify these capabilities.
