The Scenario
- The company with a strong PAN-India presence, was at a pivotal stage of growth. As a traditionally structured firm, they aimed to modernize operations, expand further, and strengthen their leadership team to stay competitive in the evolving EdTech landscape.
The Challenge
Strategic Intervention
- The Company even though being a wellestablished traditional player was at a crucial stage of expansion. However, finding the right leadership talent came with several challenges.
- We began by aligning with company’s long-term vision and brand value.
- Its traditional setup and offline focus was a limitation in attracting high perfoming leadership talent from fast-moving, techdriven EdTech firms. Additionally, the study-abroad segment had a niche talent pool, further limiting the availability of experienced candidates.
- A team of experts created a blueprint integrating the company’s expansion plans and leadership goals to scale its operations, while maintaining their stronghold in the traditional study-abroad Edtech space.
- Furthermore, rapid evolvement of the EdTech industry, with newer, digital-first startups was gaining prominence. Leaders driving aggressive expansion were needed.
- Using a multi-channel approach and our extensive network, we attracted top leaders with proven success in scaling established businesses.
- With the company's offline-centric model and legacy, our shortlisting prioritized highperforming leaders from seasoned organizations over digital-first EdTech startups.
Outcome
- Our strategic approach bridged leadership gaps and fueled the company's growth.
- Onboarded a seasoned CEO, dynamic Marketing Head, and strategic Financial Controller, each driving transformation.
- Strengthened operations, enabling seamless integration of modern strategies while preserving core strengths.
- With renewed leadership, the company accelerated expansion, solidifying its position in the competitive EdTech space.
