CHICAGO, 2013-11-13 12:30 CET (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Heidrick&Struggles International (Nasdaq:HSII), commemorates its 60th
anniversary with a series of events -- including the ringing of The NASDAQ
Stock Market Closing Bell - all designed to remember its heritage, reinforce
its core values, recognize employees and clients, and reinforce innovation for
future growth.
'Assisting clients build winning leadership teams is the reason Heidrick&Struggles was founded 60 years ago by Gardner Heidrick and John E. Struggles.
And, it remains the foundation for what we do on behalf of the many
organizations we serve. Since 1953, we have been cultivating deep relationships
with the world's most talented individuals on behalf of the world's most
successful companies. Today, our team continues the rich tradition of our
founders, of shaping our industry - and many others - around the world,' said
Jory Marino, interim CEO of Heidrick&Struggles.
Through a blend of organic growth and strategic acquisitions - most recently
Senn Delaney, the world's leading culture shaping firm - Heidrick&Struggles
has expanded globally and driven leadership innovation at the highest levels.
All the while, the firm has maintained its commitment to superior client
service and leadership results.
'On November 15th, 1953, Gardner Heidrick and John E. Struggles opened a small
office in downtown Chicago. At the time, there was no such thing as executive
search. But, they had determination and vision, and today, that vision has
translated into a $10 billion industry,' said Gerry Roche, senior chairman and
50 year firm veteran. 'We continue to have the brightest business minds
anywhere, and our clients know we will go beyond what is expected. That is what
Heidrick&Struggles is all about.'
'A company's success is dependent upon building a top leadership team and
Heidrick&Struggles has been a longstanding, strategic partner of PPG for
decades,' said Charles E. Bunch, Chairman&CEO, PPG Industries. 'PPG
congratulates Heidrick&Struggles on reaching this milestone. As one of the
firm's first clients, PPG is pleased to be a part of its history - the
longevity of our partnership speaks volumes about Heidrick&Struggles' value
to our business. We wish the firm continued success in the future.'
In addition, Heidrick&Struggles is marking the milestone with a variety of
employee and client celebrations around the world. The firm launched 60 Years
in Leadership, a community-based volunteer program designed to rally employees
globally and give back to the communities where they live and work. Programs
are set to take place throughout 2013 and into 2014.
'We are trusted advisors to many of the world's top companies finding the most
innovative and distinguished leaders. We are very proud of our history, and are
equally excited about our future,' said Marino.
