Transformation in action.

The selected Olani Partners success stories below showcase the real impact of our partnership model, where capability meets opportunity and meaningful connections create lasting success.

Building executive support in a growth-stage tech company

.01

A rapidly scaling software company needed an executive assistant to support their C-suite as they navigated a period of significant growth. Traditional recruitment yielded candidates with impressive credentials but lacked the resourcefulness required in a fast-paced startup environment.

 

Through the Olani Partners talent pool, we introduced them to a first-generation professional with five years of administrative experience across diverse industries. While she didn’t have a university degree, her demonstrated ability to manage complex schedules, anticipate business needs and maintain composure under pressure made her an ideal fit.

 

Within seven months, she had become indispensable to the leadership team, streamlining operations and enabling executives to focus on strategic priorities.

Transforming hiring practices at a financial services firm

.02

We're so grateful. Olani Partners helped us see that we were chasing the wrong qualifications. Once we shifted to assessing actual capability, we found stronger candidates and our retention problems disappeared. It's changed how we think about talent entirely.

A global financial services firm was struggling with retention in their operations department. Despite hiring candidates with excellent educational credentials, they experienced high turnover within the first 18 months. Leadership recognized that their hiring approach wasn’t identifying professionals who could handle their collaborative, client-focused environment.


Olani Partners conducted a comprehensive assessment of their hiring process and organizational culture. Our analysis revealed that their job descriptions and interview processes were filtering out capable professionals who possessed the interpersonal skills and practical competence their roles required.


We redesigned their hiring criteria to emphasize demonstrated capability and trained their managers on skills-based interviewing techniques to help them explain clear pathways for career progression. The result was a dramatic improvement in both hiring outcomes and retention.

Strengthening operations at a professional services firm

.03

A boutique consulting firm was struggling to find an operations manager who could bring structure to their growing practice without imposing rigid corporate processes. They needed someone who understood the nuances of professional services and could build systems that supported their collaborative culture.


Our talent pool included a professional who had worked her way up from administrative roles to operations coordination in a similar environment. She brought practical knowledge of what works in small firms and a collaborative approach to process improvement.


Her impact was immediately felt. She redesigned their project tracking systems and improved client communication workflows from the ground up.

Olani Partners is proud to call Miami home, serving as a hub for our mission to transform careers and strengthen organizations.
