Company History
The world’s first leadership advisory firm.
In 1953, Gardner Heidrick and John Struggles sent a printed card to businesses in the Midwest announcing the founding of their new firm in Chicago, Illinois. Since then, we’ve expanded across the world and worked with leading organizations in every major industry.
