The executive talent market isn’t what it was even a year ago.

In this episode, Christie Angel and Tracy McMillan share what they’re seeing in real time, from tighter timelines to a shrinking pool of truly “ready-now” leaders. Some roles are moving faster than ever, while others, especially CFO and Chief Development Officer, are harder to fill despite more candidates in the market.

They also unpack the continued wave of CEO exits, the rise of interim and fractional leadership, and why relocation has become a growing barrier in national searches. For boards and leadership teams, the takeaway is clear: the playbook has changed.

This is a practical, behind-the-scenes look at what’s driving executive hiring decisions right now and how to stay competitive without compromising on the leader you need.
