Profile
Nisha leads Talentstra's most sensitive search mandates — board appointments, CEO succession, and the people-function roles that carry a transformation. She is known among clients for pushing back on the brief before accepting it, on the view that most failed searches were mis-specified rather than mis-executed.
Her practice covers the United States and Canada, with particular depth in businesses moving between ownership models: founder to institutional, corporate to sponsor-backed, private to public.
Before advisory work, Nisha held in-house talent leadership roles, which shapes how she runs a process — she has been the client, and builds engagements she would have wanted to receive.
