“A note of reflection and thanks on a special Thanksgiving Day”

Thanksgiving is a special time to reflect on what we cherish and what we have to be thankful for. So indeed it is a good time to think about my almost three years at Korn/Ferry International. I joined the firm in May 2007 after heading the Tech practice for RRA in NY for almost five years. RRA is a well established retained search firm where I learned many secrets of our art but I never felt part of the inner circle. At Korn/Ferry International, I quickly learned that I belong to what is a very supportive and carrying family! I know for a fact that I have a lot to be thankful and grateful for.

In 2008, my son was diagnosed with Juvenile Diabetes, which completely changed our life. This year, my beloved father passed away in March and my mother-in-law was diagnosed with a serious cancer illness in November. Throughout this entire period, the Firm has been on my side, very supportive and accommodating every doctor visit or time that I had to spend with my family. During a period of great stress and difficulty, I have had a strong ally on my side of family and friends who really care and go out of their way to be helpful.

Today is a very special day when I want to say thank you to all of you. We have a lot to be proud of. Being part of the Korn/Ferry family is indeed a very special gift to me and my entire family.

Happy Thanksgiving and merci beaucoup!

  1. Hallo Patrick, ca va? Kennst Du mich noch von Siemens? Wir haben dort zusammen im Jahr 1990 angefangen. Ich denke oft an Dich. Großartig, die Karriere, die Du gemacht hast als Personalberater in New York. Wie geht es Dir? Schau Dir mal meine Webseite an. Dort ist auch ein Foto meiner Familie. Ich habe drei Kinder. Meine Frau Barbara hast Du damals in München noch kennengelernt, glaube ich.
    Freu mich, von Dir zu hören. Dein Christoph Hägele
