About Morgan Samuels

We were founded in 1969, with a single idea in mind: to help people and organizations achieve their greatest potential. And this vision has become today’s reality. Today, Morgan Samuels offers a broad spectrum of results-driven solutions that leverages human capital, transforms businesses, and revolutionizes executive search. The variables are many — we work in categories from engineering and natural resources to leading edge technology, and we offer services throughout the life stages of business. Our constants lie in our approach to each client’s situation. We deliver strategy, experience, expertise, and service to every client engagement.

Strategy

Effective collaboration requires a thorough understanding of your strategy. Companies repeatedly turn to Morgan Samuels for help in defining and executing on the best strategic plans for their future.

Once informed about and aligned with the interests of our clients, we’re ready to provide innovative solutions for the toughest human capital challenges.

Experience

There’s value in empathy, and it’s something that our clients profit from every day. When companies turn to Morgan Samuels, they’re turning to dynamic, experienced leaders in the industry – experts who know what it takes to transform business.

Our experts came to Morgan Samuels with backgrounds from consulting firms, as operators of globally-known companies, or as practitioners with decades of experiences. But we all came with a common purpose: to use all that we’ve learned and done to help our clients ignite transformational change.

Service

We believe that we can’t provide transformative solutions to our clients until and unless we own their problem. So we serve each client not only with extensive capabilities and a deep roster of talent but also with a spirit of service. A spirit of mission first — your mission.

Morgan Samuels believes, “It’s business. And yes, it IS personal, especially when it’s yours." For us, there is no higher reward than earning the roles of true business partners and trusted advisors through personal and painstaking service.
