Executive search – national & international
Collaboration with partner firms in China and other Asian countries
In selected regions, for example in India, we successfully work together with local partner firms in specific phases of the search.
There are particular challenges in Asian markets: Japan and Korea are demanding markets. Without an understanding of the local culture and without access to a well-established network, it is very difficult to attract strong local managers to lead a German subsidiary.
etec Consult has successfully completed numerous projects in these challenging markets over the past 20 years.

Experience that works globally.
