For a firm looking to use an executive search firm to build a digital organization, there are a couple of things that need to be considered. There will be a lot of firms out there that will say that they've done it before and claim to be the best firm to do the work. 

According to Bob, the first thing to do would be to consider the person that's going to be working with you, and not necessarily the reputation of the firm. 

Bob Damon is a Partner at Ventura Partners, an executive search firm specializing in the placement of very senior executives and board members. He has over 30 years of experience working with boards and C-suite level executives on critical organizational and talent management issues. Bob has helped to place dozens of CEOs and senior e-commerce executives in major brands that are well known to consumers. 

In this episode, host James Thomson is joined by Bob Damon to talk about finding the right executive talent for e-commerce brands, changes in his executive search firm over the years, and his biggest accomplishments.
