Why Trilogy Talent Advisors

Why Another Executive Search Firm?

Quite simply, we saw a unique opportunity. Trilogy Talent Advisors was born out of a recognition that the partnerships between CEOs, CFOs, and CHROs are vital to driving business success. Our mission is to bridge the gap between these key leaders and to identify individuals who can elevate organizations to new heights.

Our Mission

At Trilogy Talent Advisors, we believe that outstanding business performance and great company cultures are founded on the effective partnerships of CEOs, CHROs, and CFOs. We are confident that our approach to executive search can create those relationships and, in turn, build healthy, sustainable companies with great work environments and superior stakeholder returns.

The Evolution of HR and Finance Leadership

Driving Strategic Conversations

In the past, HR and finance were often seen as cost centers rather than strategic partners. HR was focused on administration, while finance was primarily concerned with maintaining the integrity of the numbers. However, over the past few decades, progressive organizations have realized the untapped potential of these roles. The best CHROs and CFOs now have the skillset and perspective to lead strategic dialogues within their firms, contributing to decisions that benefit the entire organization.

The Convergence of Skills

Where HR and finance were once seen as opposites, the skills required for leadership success in these areas have become increasingly aligned. The collaboration between these functions has evolved from a focus on efficiency to a focus on identifying the key metrics that deliver sustainable value to the organization.

Our Approach

Strategic Leadership Development

Bridging the Development Gap

Despite the evolution of HR and finance roles, many organizations still lack the development opportunities necessary for these leaders to fully play their strategic roles. At Trilogy, we recognized this gap and founded our firm on the belief that successful partnerships among the CEO, CFO, and CHRO produce the best business outcomes. We are committed to building relationships with leaders who understand this partnership and who have the experience and competency to serve as trusted advisors to the CEO throughout their careers.

Our Approach to Executive Search

Our executive search process is centered around identifying and attracting leaders who can drive the success of your organization. But we don’t stop there. Every interaction with potential candidates is an opportunity to engage in a career development conversation, providing valuable feedback and insights to help them progress into the most senior levels of their function. As we continue to grow, we are committed to playing an even more active role in the career development of the next generation of CHROs and CFOs.

Why Would You Want to Work for a PE-Backed Firm?

For CFOs who may be of a mind to hook up with a private equity-backed company, open your eyes wide and tread very carefully.

I am talking about a large majority of respondents here – at least 70 percent. When I ask why, the answer invariably focuses on the opportunity to participate in a transaction and … Read more

What CFOs Can Do About Diversity

I’m not going to rehash the economic benefits a company accrues by employing progressive diversity policies. The benefits are clear. Companies that promote diversity do better financially than those that do not. If this fact is obvious, why is there such a shortage of diversity in the finance function, and what can a CFO do about it? First, the top of the funnel is still small. According to a 2019 study by the AICPA, most students studying accounting are white, … Read more
