Women Executives Testimonials | Female Executive Search

Ghislaine, CEO, Switzerland

My whole experience with CEO Worldwide & Female Executive Search has been very positive. Through their network I have secured a highly interesting CEO role, working in Switzerland in the Artificial Intelligence sector. Initially secured as an 6-month interim to permanent CEO assignment opportunity, this has now been made a permanent role. For companies wishing to attract diverse talent - and to tap into a new pool of international candidates - I'd highly recommend working with CEO Worldwide & Female Executive Search. Whilst for candidates, this is a fantastic opportunity to showcase your skills and be considered for a range of international positions.

Rebecca, Sales & Marketing Director, USA

I was impressed that Female Executive Search platform is dedicated to female executives, which is less common in the industry. I appreciated that the team actively promotes female candidates to increase digital exposure. The firm features a female executive of the month on the website, social media and the newsletter. They are very focused on DEI. I encourage candidates and employers to explore this platform.I was impressed that Female Executive Search platform is dedicated to female executives, which is less common in the industry.

Shantha, CEO, India

Having grown up the ranks to reach the level of a CEO, I understand the effort it takes to get there and on an individual capacity I support every individual who has a dream to get there. I often come across situations where women who are talented, give up their dreams midway to accommodate domestic affairs and other reasons, just because they are women or they simply face indecisiveness in terms of pursuing their careers. Being a CEO of a Multi National Logistics firm, I believe in gender equality and I undertake upon myself to motivate people along the path of their careers.

It has been a great privilege to be associated with CEO WORLDWIDE . Their initiative, 'Female Search Executive', helps bridge the gap of progressive employers and talent amongst the women. This platform enables women to showcase their professional talent where they can list their profile, share their best practices and exhibit their skills. The platform showcases their participation at conferences, panel discussion accolades drawn and awards won. Through this executive search they can search for opportunities in the global arena and can become a part of the community of like minded people.

I have witnessed the activities of Female Search Executive and greatly appreciate their creative and consistent pursuit of excellence.

Viviane, CEO, France

CEO Worldwide and Female Executive Search are "makers" in a world of "sayers", real partners. Their approach allowed me to become aware of unexplored talents, to discover more of my potential. Thanks to the time France Dequilbec gave me, to her encouragement, I dared to use the video to present several of my facets. I acquired a new skill by "having fun". Her kind advice has also allowed me to progress in the formalization of my ideas into insight papers. I wish every executive the opportunity to have such an enriching and rewarding experience. Thank you to the whole team and especially to you France, for your commitment and your unfailing support.

About France Dequilbec? Wonderful! She did not hesitate one second to provide me with high quality guidance and help out with my young professional career growth, simply because she truly believed in my capacities to take off! Trust is a fundamental pillar for anyone who wants to move forward. Actually, France did not help me getting “THE” job within “THE” company, she did more than this, she awakened a long-buried desire for autonomy! A new step to entrepreneurship is cooking, MERCI France

Asha, CEO, India

I have been associated with France Dequilbec over the last 5 years. Her commitment to CEO Worldwide and Female Executive Search to seeing women leaders take on board roles is amazing. The work that she is doing is a great cause because we see gender parity catching up to some extent in middle management levels but when it comes to board roles, numbers are still a far cry from where we should be considering the demography ratio. I wish France great success in her mission and endeavors.

Morgane, CEO, France

Business transformation is part of all companies' evolution, especially fast-growing ones, or during crisis. This means systems' transformation, but also organization and people. By aligning soft skills ans hard skills, that is how I drive teams to be actor of such transformations, rather than just undergoing it. CEO WorldWide and France Dequilbec clealy follow the same win-win vision, as a facilitator in business tense situations, by pro;oting women leaders. Aligning people, aligning numbers.
