You won't find a client list or placement announcements here — that's intentional.
I prioritize discretion and don't use my clients' names as marketing. If you'd like to see examples of past work to get a sense of my experience, just email me and let me know a little more about the project you're working on, such as the type of organization and the role — I'm happy to share relevant searches.
"I hired Diane Carlyle for a challenging national search in large part because I knew of her reputation as someone who develops genuine relationships with candidates. Her care of candidates not only expands her prospect and referral base, but it makes her the best possible champion for your organization with the people you most want to hire."
Gail Lopes, Former Board Chair of Oregon Shakespeare Festival and Arts for LA
"We are thrilled with Diane’s work and impressed by the quality, professionalism, and adaptability she brought to our search. Her process was thorough, efficient, and incredibly clear, she communicated consistently, provided insightful guidance at every step, and delivered a highly qualified candidate pool in a remarkably short timeframe. Just as important, every candidate remarked on Diane’s professionalism and genuine support throughout the process. Diane was an outstanding partner, and we’re grateful for her leadership and expertise."
Rorie Cartier, CEO, Admiral Nimitz Foundation
"We had a terrific experience working with Diane. She ran an organized search, identified qualified candidates, provided helpful insights in advance of us interviewing candidates, and provided wise counsel as we negotiated offers and ultimately made a hire. Diane quickly became a trusted and valued partner to our team.”
Chris Adkins-Lamb, Director of Development, Air Force Museum Foundation
“After almost 20 years of doing this work, I know that each organization and each search is different. While there are best practices, there is no one-size-fits-all approach, and I work with you to design a right-sized approach”
