Here's how it all began...

In 1995, Dr. Arlene Barro entered executive search after spending many years in high-level healthcare management and consulting. Accustomed to taking the road less traveled, she decided to create a method for presenting one Right Fit candidate to client-employers and conclude the search. Undaunted by the prevailing mindset that employers must compare and contrast many candidates to find the "best," Dr. Barro determined that this mindset could lead to hiring the wrong fit. She told me what her dad taught her as a child about standards. "Don't pick the 'best' banana; select the one that meets your standards. If all the bananas are rotten and you select the 'best' you still have a rotten banana!" Eureka! Dr. Barro would, in concert with the employer, create a Blueprint of the Right Fit candidate.
In 1998, Dr. Barro pilot-tested the early version of her Right Fit Method with Tom Lombardo, Founding Editor-in-Chief of WebMD. Says Lombardo: "I hired 40 candidates from Dr. Barro. The Right Fit Method worked for WebMD’s growth in the US, the United Kingdom, and Canada. Together, we built WebMD.”
