Our Services

Executive Search

Executive Search is a powerful tool that enables our Clients to identify the right talent in the industry. It is a focused and targeted process which uses consulting, research and various diagnostic skills. This enables our Clients to have a consistent quality edge over competitors.

Our executive search consultants are able to identify potential leaders. They can then use sophisticated interviewing and resourcing tools to assess technical competence, personality and culture fit.

Executive Selection

We are a globally linked recruitment solutions provider. We provide our Clients with a full and extensive executive placement service where the focus is on the research and intensive search 'head hunt' to identify appropriate candidates in line with our Clients' requirements.

When a Client decides to advertise with us, we ensure the position gains wide spread exposure and all potential talent in the pool are aware of the opening.

In case of a confidential job opening, the Client is also offered the choice of running a blind advertisement using our already established brand name.

We help strategise the job advertisement and identify appropriate media for the opening with Client approval and then monitor and co-ordinate the response. We conduct interviews and propose a list of selected candidates to the Client.

All advertised assignments incorporate a detailed database search. In addition we offer the service of placing the advertisement on our website at no extra cost.

Interim Management

Interim Management is a key capability that we offer to clients to meet their requirements. It offers companies an effective way of filling unexpected vacancies or managing short-term projects. It provides organisations with experienced, high caliber managers who are problem solvers, trouble shooters and business change managers. Whether your requirement is to fill a short-term management gap or if you require specialist expertise for a specific project, Interim Management is the solution.

Interim Management suits the executive who is interested in part-time working or fixed term contracts, who takes up the challenge of sorting out a business crisis in the limited time frame. This gives them the skills and knowledge to execute positive change quickly and in a cost effective manner. Agora has a database of candidates available to fill varying roles.

Board Consulting

Agora has a dedicated team of professionals whose sole focus is recruiting Boards of Directors and consulting on matters of corporate governance. Our process addresses two key components of a Board enrichment strategy: Board recruitment and Board development. We recruit Directors whose intellect, integrity, objectivity and courage will help clients strengthen their Board structure and improve governance.

Executive & CEO Coaching

Executive and Business coaching concentrates on improving performance effectively. It is seen as a means in creating and sustaining personal effectiveness and organisational change. It is a development option that is practical, on the job, results oriented and time limited.

This practice focuses on enhancing the client's performance by focusing on values, setting clear goals, developing vision and working with self-limiting beliefs.

We believe that coaching can benefit any new executive. The practice helps senior managers and executives discuss their uncertainty or vulnerability with a person who will help them working towards solutions rather than question their problem and who will challenge them using powerful questions.

M&A Advisory Services

Agora Merger and Acquisitions (M&A) Advisory Services augments value creation for Clients by clearly understanding their objectives and structuring customised solutions to achieve desired goals.

We ensure success to Clients through a discreet approach, highly skilled industry expertise and lasting relationships. We understand and work with an unwavering commitment to quality, and have earned the reputation of a trusted and valued business partner.
