• Heidrick & Struggles: Global executive search firm with a consumer and hospitality practice; competes at the senior end of the same mandates but lacks DC Global Talent's boutique luxury-vertical positioning.
• Spencer Stuart: Global executive search firm engaging on CEO and board-level hospitality searches; overlaps at the very top of the market but serves a much broader set of industries than DC Global Talent.
