The reality is that even when a firm finds software that will help achieve its goals, there is a chance the decision makers will want to wait before making such a significant investment. This hesitation is understandable; after all, there is a common perception that adopting a new technology platform is disruptive to a team’s established workflow and costly to implement.

Here at Clockwork we often extol the virtues of client collaboration. In our Executive Search Performance Benchmark Report, we can clearly see that projects with online client collaboration have a 21% greater chance of ending with a successful placement. We’ve come to consider it as self-evident that collaboration is better.
Yet, when you peel back a layer there’s even more value to collaborating. It's not just better because the client is kept in the loop, expectations are set, and possible missteps are avoided. The search team actually does better work too!
2020 has been challenging in many respects, and we've all had to adjust to changes throughout the year. One thing that hasn't changed is Clockwork's commitment to continually upgrading our users' experience. Throughout the year, our team has been busy developing new and improved solutions that give our users more power with less effort.
If you’ve been in the executive search industry for a while then you know the importance of having a process in place for managing your projects and business leads.
