Market Intelligence
Combining the world’s largest executive database with next-generation proprietary market intelligence.
“Knowledge has become the key economic resource and the dominant, if not the only, source of competitive advantage.” —Peter F. Drucker
At the foundation of our Real Estate Sector is a significant financial and organizational commitment to industry research and knowledge management across all Korn/Ferry industry practices. We have established a deep research function supporting our consultants who are in the market 365 days a year, expanding and refining our database of executives and professionals across all functional areas. There is no other firm with such an extensive global network of search consultants that manages such an integrated research process.
Proprietary search management tools Korn/Ferry has designed and developed the most sophisticated database management tool in the industry. Searcher Express is a fully integrated and sophisticated technology that manages information across the globe encompassing all companies and professionals in the real estate industry. Through the commitment of our Real Estate team and colleagues in other speciality practices such as Human Resources, Financial Officers, Private Equity, Technology and Marketing, we capture information across all organizational functions that support today’s real estate organization. Our proprietary tools are also supplemented by the acquisition of third-party resources that provide up-to-the-minute information on organizations and professionals in the industry.
Market Intelligence Team Complimenting our search management process is the Market Intelligence Team, a dedicated team of professionals who manage business information and proprietary research. They provide strategic market advisory services to executives through a global network of researchers, consultants and client relationships. This dedicated unit provides real-time and reliable analysis and evaluation of organizations and market trends, providing our client with the ability to make more informed and better business decisions.

The Art & Science of Talent The success of any organization depends on its leadership. Finding individuals with the skills, attitude and character that can assume a key leadership role requires the insight and intuition that comes with deep experience. This is the “art” of executive search that allows Korn/Ferry to place executives that are ideally suited to our clients needs.
Studies show that the main reason people are unsuccessful on the job is due to a lack of behavioral and/or cultural fit with the organization, not lack of skills.
Korn/Ferry incorporates a scientific approach to evaluating executives and professionals by seamlessly integrating research with our vast practical experience. Providing a more complete view of the candidate than is otherwise possible, our proprietary assessment tools are proven to generate better results in identifying the right person for the position. Our methodology includes: • Using a competency-based framework that provides a clear and common language to help clients identify desired skills and behaviors. • Administering our behavioral mapping tool—Search AssessmentSM—to prospective candidates, providing clients with insights into how they will lead, how they will approach and solve complex problems, what their emotional profile is likely to be and what motivates them to succeed. • Comparing candidates’ assessment results against our statistically validated indicators of success, which are customized to reflect the specific requirements of a client’s organizational culture or position. Korn/Ferry’s Real Estate Sector combines the art and science of search to lead to superior hiring decisions.
