Risk

The significant risk with senior appointments is the provision of inaccurate information or misrepresentation by a candidate. This may result in reputational damage, business distortion and unnecessary cost.

Mitigation

Through our VERIFY Due Diligence methodology we are able to:

• Obtain additional information about individual career histories which might not previously have been revealed by the candidate
• Explore how executives are perceived by former and existing colleagues, superiors, peers and subordinates
• Assess market reputation of executives from advisors, investors, competitors and clients

Each assignment is managed with extreme discretion and tailored to the client’s specific requirements. The Johnson brand and network ensures unusually deep and timely information.

Where comments and findings are contradictory, we make a point of gathering further comment until an accurate conclusion can be drawn on contentious points. We deliver a comprehensive report with verbatim comments (when appropriate).
