A strong résumé may open the door, but it's only one part of the executive search process. Executive search researchers look beyond titles and career history to evaluate leadership potential, influence, adaptability, and long-term fit—often before a search consultant ever reaches out. 

Join a panel of experienced AESC-member executive search researchers as they share how they identify high-potential leaders, what signals they look for beyond the résumé, and how executives can position themselves to stand out in a competitive market. 

Together, we'll explore: 

• How researchers evaluate leadership potential.  
• What matters beyond the résumé.  
• The role of executive brand and online presence.  
• How candidates are identified and assessed.  
• Ways to increase your visibility with search firms.  
• And more!
