Executiva

Executiva is an executive search, leadership development and coaching firm founded by Anita Hoffmann, a leadership advisor and accredited coach with over 20 years' experience in the field. The company helps organisations attract and develop socially, ethically and economically-aware global leaders whilst supporting executives in creating careers with purpose. Executiva specialises in recruiting international CXOs, regional and divisional heads, chairmen and NEDs, as well as backable executives for private equity and venture capital firms, social enterprise leaders and NGO leaders across multiple sectors.

Executiva operates across the energy, manufacturing, technology and sustainability sectors, with particular expertise in the energy-water-sustainability nexus. The company works with power, infrastructure and renewables organisations, chemical and bio-based materials companies, cleantech firms, and businesses providing expert services to the energy and resources supply chain. Executiva's proprietary Leadership Competency Framework, developed through research collaboration with BSR and Cranfield University, underpins its assessment and advisory services, enabling the company to identify leaders with the competencies necessary to lead with sustainability in mind.

Based in London, Executiva is recognised for the quality of its work, long-term client relationships and deep knowledge of the markets it serves. The company advises and assists organisations on mid and late-career development, provides executive coaching for transformative goals, and helps senior leaders develop leadership capabilities aligned with social purpose and financial responsibility. Executiva's research, including the 2016 global study "Purpose Driven Leader, Purpose Driven Career" conducted with Cranfield University, demonstrates how companies can recruit, develop and promote leaders who combine profit with purpose.
