The InterSearch Australia

Difference

e define Mid-Caps as organisations which have a different level of ownership involvement to the very biggest listed companies. In our definition, Mid-Caps include family businesses and government organisations.

Mid-Cap companies will often have shareholders which are very active on the Board, and in management. The Board is likely to have a very close relationship with the Executive Team.

When working for Mid-Caps, we are always mindful to search very hard of the following attributes, for both the Board and Executive teams:

• Cultural Fit – sharing the Vision, and executing the Strategy whilst protecting the culture.
• Collegiality & Teamwork – a keen desire to leverage the talents of everyone in the organisation.
• Agility – speed of sound decision-making and impeccable judgement.
• Respect for others – including those above, alongside and below.

We know that our experience can add a great deal of value in understanding what is required for, and finding, people who are outstandingly successful in a Mid-Cap.

n today’s global business environment, companies are seeking growth opportunities in emerging markets, corporate governance issues have resulted in more regulations, shareholder activism is on the rise, and enterprise risk management has never been more important. Amid these challenges and risks, there is an increased focus on the responsibilities – and liability – of board directors.

Based on the range of skills and experiences required, identifying the right mix of directors for your company, or assessing the effectiveness of your current board, can seem like a complex and overwhelming challenge.

• Board search (non-executive director and chairman search)
