“This is a terrific opportunity for me to collaborate with Elaina as we look to continue to grow the Professional Search Practice to serve clients better and bring them impactful leadership,” Schroetlin said. “Elaina has been in the executive search industry for more than 35 years. She has had a strong influence upon my career and I look forward to serving alongside her.”
