An AESC elevator pitch in famous voices?! We love it! #WeAreAESC
Maggie Smith Did Not Really Say This. This weekend I was messing around with ChatGPT and asked for an AESC elevator pitch in the voice of Dame Maggie Smith. ChatGPT was pretty brilliant! Then I asked for more – lots more. Here are just a few, all in good fun and with deep respect for the incredible voices and characters that inspire us. “Write an elevator pitch for AESC in the voice of…” DAME MAGGIE SMITH: "When one requires a new executive — and not just any executive, mind you, but the right one — one turns to an AESC member firm. These are not mere agencies fumbling about for candidates. No, no — they are the crème de la crème, held to the highest standards of excellence, ethics, and discretion. Really, why entrust such a delicate task to anyone else?" SAMUEL L. JACKSON: "Look, if you’re on the hunt for a top-tier executive, don’t mess around. You need an AESC member firm. These folks don’t play. Strict standards, no shortcuts, and zero tolerance for BS. They’ll help you get leadership built to last, with diversity and integrity baked in from the jump. Trust me, this is the move you don’t want to regret." GOKU: “Hey! Finding the right leader isn’t something you can just wing—this is serious business! AESC member firms know how to find the kind of leader who’ll push through challenges like a Kamehameha, never give up, and lift your whole team higher. They don’t cut corners, and they know diversity is key—because a good team is made up of all kinds of strengths, just like in battle! Get a leader who’s not just good on paper but someone ready to fight for your future!" ALLEN GINSBURG: "Howl for the leaders lost in the machinery of modernity, for the seekers of wisdom in boardrooms of glass, where the clock ticks but no one finds the future— unless you call upon an AESC firm, guardians of integrity, travelers through labyrinths of talent. Not scavengers of résumés, but dreamweavers, they select souls who carry the blueprint of tomorrow— the alchemy of character and change. AESC firms move beyond today’s brittle structures, building leadership like a bridge to the future. Trust AESC to find leaders who glow with the fire of purpose, untangled from noise, ready to rise and ignite." NOEL COWARD: "My dear fellow, when it comes to securing a proper executive, one simply mustn’t leave things to chance. This is not an amateur’s game. An AESC member firm is precisely the sort of partner you need—refined, discreet, and ever so competent. They operate with impeccable standards, ensuring your new leader is exquisitely suited to your organization’s ambitions. And, of course, they are champions of diversity and long-term impact—so frightfully modern, yet delightfully thorough. Really, why risk a fiasco when you can trust the best? One must, after all, have standards." Fun impersonations, and ChatGPT gets AESC! Let’s keep experimenting with AI while maintaining the highest professional standards. #ExecutiveSearch #RecruitingWithTheStars

#Diversity refers to a range of differences among a group, including—but not limited to—race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, abilities, socioeconomic status, education and cultural background. It isn't an item to cross off on a checklist or based on physical appearance (which should never be a criterion for selecting a new hire). #Candidates should always be selected based on a position's specific requirements and the individual’s abilities, #competencies and the lived experiences they bring to the organization.
