Identifying Past and Present Executives on a Tight Timeline
Our Research Team recently completed a challenging project in which we identified 100+ executives in healthcare technology while providing an in-depth 15-page “past and present” organizational chart within a tight deadline.
Today we present a case study to show our process, challenges encountered, and overall benefits the client received from this project.

The Expedient Delivery of a Large Comparative Organizational Chart in the Health Technology Sector
Sometimes clients request a simple org chart that include the names of some small to mid-sized departments. These jobs are straightforward and are part of the bread and butter of what we do at Corporate Navigators. Even with these “simple” charts, we ensure all data is accurate and complete on the day of delivery, including detailed notes when we discover extraordinary information.
Then, sometimes clients come to us with big requests. Recently, a client in the healthcare technology space needed a lot of information about a competitor company at a tight timeline. This project required the skills of multiple Recruitment Researchers and supporting staff to see it through. Ultimately, we delivered spreadsheets with over 100 names of executives and direct reports and a 15+ page package of editable org charts visually display the company’s reporting structure.
We delivered the lion’s share of the data within one week’s time over a holiday weekend, discovering the information our client needed to make clear, important business decisions. In addition, we continued to deliver more on-target names after the date of delivery to further assist with the client’s business needs.
Organizational Chart in Healthcare Tech Case Study
Objective
A Fortune 100 client in the medical device sector recently came to us with a challenging request: map out the current organizational structure of a large competitor company and compare it to its previous structure. The data included over 100 names with detailed information, headshots, and additional notes when available.
Process
This was an “all hands on deck” task. Our Research Team immediately went to work to identify the executives in the competing company, both past and present. Next, we verified all of our findings using a combination of research techniques and discreetly calling on sources within the target company. This ensured 100% accuracy when combining all of the information found across LinkedIn, public sources, company websites, and other professionally-sourced data.
To meet the tight deadline, we sent the client executive mapping data in batches, adding names to the list as we uncovered more information and leaders. Ultimately, we identified more than 100 executives and mapped out their reporting structure. Final product grew to an extensive 15-page org chart delivered in an editable PowerPoint Presentation (upon the client’s request).
Highlights
1. Accelerated Business Information Delivery
- We delivered the first round of research within a week’s time over a holiday weekend.
2. Identifying Past Executives
- The true “wow factor” of this project. We identified past executives and compared the former org structure to the present one, going above and beyond the typical research and org chart request.
3. Ongoing Research to Augment Data
- To augment existing data, our research team continued to identify more names after the first delivery batch.
4. Detailed Research Notes
- The delivered organizational chart included a spreadsheet that contained vital details like contact information, location, social media links, email addresses, phone numbers. There were also additional research notes about the executive’s future replacements, unique responsibilities, and other inside information discovered while calling into the competitor’s company.
