Diversity Recruitment Search
TSSG Diversity understands that recruiting a diverse workforce is not about filling a quota. True diversity starts with an organizational mission to recruit a variety of outstanding people with differing backgrounds, skills, ideas and cultures including veterans, candidates with disabilities and the aging population.
Diversity Talent Pools: We identify the best-of-the-best diverse talent from all your favorite target companies and build custom talent pools to ensure diversity inclusion.
Diversity Benchmarking: We gather closely held information about the diversity of competitor organizations to make comparisons, gain valuable insights, and discover opportunities to increase the diversity of senior executive talent.
Executive Search: We ensure the best-of-the-best diverse candidates are well represented in every executive search we conduct. We measure and track diversity every step of the way.
Regardless of the skill set, diversity focus and your culture needs, TSSG Diversity can help. Challenging searches are where we truly excel.


Women Executive Search
Companies with greater gender equality at a senior level are proven to be more profitable. Yet despite the indisputable evidence that female executives build better businesses, there is still a need for female voices to be heard.
Research shows women make great leaders, are respected as managers, and consistently build successful teams.
That’s why TSSG Diversity, created Women Executive Search – to connect the very best C-level female executives with companies that value female leaders. Every executive in our community is vetted against strict criteria by TSSG Diversity for their experience and leadership qualities.

Board Assignments Search
Board members face increasing scrutiny from stakeholders; from fast-changing corporate governance regulations, increasing diversity requirements, and pressure to provide transparent and directional leadership.
Yet the talent pool for highly experienced Board directors with an exceptional skillset and the experience to deliver deep insight, guidance is limited, and potential candidates are highly sought-after.
Before the search begins, we work with our clients to understand the needs, objectives and the culture of the board. Then, by tapping into valuable long-standing relationships within our network, as well as exploring other avenues of board level talent, we are able to provide our clients with an exceptional, diverse slate of candidates.
