For Many Firms, A Lateral Partner HireProvides The Right Prescription For Growth
A lateral partner hire can be just the right medicine for firms looking togenerate new revenue streams, develop or reinvigorate a niche, expandgeographically or grow within a developing service line.
According to Allan Koltin, president and CEO of Chicago-based PDIGlobal, during the past five years, more partners have left the Big Fourto join the Top 200 firms than ever before. It is the No. 1 growth strategyfor many firms, he says.
So how has the trend of lateral hiring gained traction? Part of it, Koltintells IPA, stems from the fallout at Andersen, which set the stage forgrowth within other non-Big Four firms. And as firms increasinglybecoming more specialized and niche-focused, demand rises for specificexpertise.
Tracy Gallagher, senior managing director ofCleveland-based CBIZ Tofias,* sees lateral hiring as a tremendous opportunity for growth. Bringing in aspecialist to revitalize a niche can produce dramaticresults, he says. For many years, Tofias did “some”business in the not-for-profit arena. “We had peopledoing it part time but it really wasn’t their specific areaof expertise.”
That changed in 2004 when Mike Burns left GrantThornton to join Tofias. “Clearly,” says Gallagher, “Mikeput us on the map.” Today, according to Gallagher, CBIZ Tofias is thepremier not-for-profit player in the greater Boston area. The firm isinvolved with high-end not-for-profits, including more than a dozen colleges and universities, major cultural institutions and renownedmuseums. “Before Mike came on board, we couldn’t even get our footin the door,” he says.
