Role Evaluation Scorecards

Every C-suite hire deserves a better process than gut feel.

Whether you're an internal talent lead, an executive search partner, or a CEO filling a seat on your own leadership team — these scorecards give you a structured, repeatable way to evaluate what actually matters for each role.

Why these scorecards

Remove the guesswork

Most executive interviews are inconsistent by default — different panels, different questions, different signals. These scorecards align your process before the first conversation starts.

Built for the role, not just the level

A CEO hire and a CFO hire require fundamentally different evaluation frameworks. Each scorecard is written specifically for that role's demands, blind spots, and common failure modes.

Consistency that holds under pressure

Late-stage executive searches get rushed. Having a structured scorecard means your panel stays aligned even when timelines compress and the pressure to decide increases.

How to use the scorecards

A repeatable framework in four steps.

01

Choose the role

Pick the scorecard that matches the position you're hiring for — each one covers the criteria specific to that seat. A CRO scorecard is not a CMO scorecard.

02

Align your panel

Share the scorecard with everyone involved in the process before interviews begin. Consistency starts here — not in the debrief.

03

Run the evaluation

Work through the eight sections with each candidate. The questions are designed to surface signal, not just screen for experience or pedigree.

04

Compare with confidence

With every candidate evaluated against the same framework, your debrief becomes a real conversation — not a battle of impressions.
