Angela Thomas

For Angela Thomas, it has always been important to establish a deep connection with people and to understand them beyond the superficial level. While assessing, and searching for top executives, competence, and the right cultural fit are some of the important qualities that she focuses on.

She became a part of the Executive Search industry by chance, but over the years she has grown to like it. Exposure to a diverse pool of leaders, the learning opportunities and their inspiring stories have kept her motivated through her consulting career. She has also appreciated the opportunities to solve their true leadership problems and be a part of the impact that it makes. She believes that qualities like self-awareness, practicality, passion, ownership and high emotional intelligence together define some of the best leaders.

Discipline, hard work, ownership, respect and camaraderie are the most essential values for her professional life. Two people who have particularly influenced her are her parents. Their lessons in tenacity, resilience, and hard work have shaped her life, and their passion for what they do has been a constant inspiration for her.
