Innovation

Appointment of Monica Arés, Executive Director, IDEA Lab, Imperial College Business School & Academic Director, Experiential Learning, Imperial College London.

“Dr Micah Coston, Head of Practice, Innovation in Education of the Spencer Group, is the epitome of an executive recruiter. He masterfully negotiates the complex dance between the recruiting organization and candidate, never once losing sight of the goals and needs of both sides of the equation. But his brilliance goes well beyond these abilities. He is an innovator in this space, challenging those he works with to imagine new mindsets and possibilities. Micah was instrumental in evolving and crafting my dream position at IMD as Chief Learning Innovation Officer, where I will be imagining and developing the next state-of-the art in education.”

“Working with Micah and the Spencer Group team was an experience that we will renew. From the outset, Micah demonstrated a deep understanding of our needs and of our unique culture and the innovation needs at IMD.  He provided invaluable advice and regular guidance throughout the search process, and his partnership approach ensured that we felt fully involved and informed at every stage. The candidates that he brought forward made the final choice difficult which is a witness to the quality network the Spencer Group has.”
