🍂🏈📒Fall Primetime Playbook for Executive Opportunities

September signals more than the end of summer vacations — it’s also kickoff season. As stadiums fill and football returns, executive recruiting enters its own “game day” period. Boards and CEOs aren’t just filling immediate vacancies; they’re drawing up plays now so leadership teams are in place and ready to start early in the new year.

How to get in the game:

• Update your materials. Refresh your LinkedIn profile and résumé with your latest wins.

• Re-engage your network. Reach out to executive recruiters and contacts who may have been quiet over the summer.

• Clarify your next move. Be clear about the industries, roles, and cultures that fit you best before conversations begin.

Just as football teams set their lineups before kickoff, organizations finalize leadership openings and rosters in the fall. Acting now ensures you’re visible and top-of-mind as they plan for the year ahead.
