Executive Search

IdealWave is the mobile and convergence practice of BSG Team Ventures, and provides custom retained executive search solutions to exceptional companies in the wireless, digital media and internet industry. IdealWave's executive search practice leverages our wireless domain expertise, research, and strategic contacts in conjunction with close client collaboration throughout the search process to execute thorough, comprehensive, and successful engagements. Our search methodology leverages our primary market research, substantial strategic market insights, a deep understanding of executive achievements "in market", and being able to "ask the right questions." Our focus on the global mobile markets offers an outstanding value proposition within executive search engagements and allows us to anticipate market trends, identify strategic advantages, become trusted partners of executives, and produce substantive and measurable results. As the convergence of digital media delivery models drives innovation, and the U.S. Department of Education states that 60 percent of all new jobs in the 21st century will require skills that are possessed by only 20 percent of the current workforce, IdealWave believes that it's rare expertise provides a competitive advantage to clients.

IdealWave was founded in January of 2001 with the goal to become the most trusted and experienced executive search firm for the mobile marketplace. As the mobile industry as evolved so have we over the years to become one of the leading search firms in the new converged mobile, digital media and internet space.  We come from a background of extensive knowledge of the mobile space but have spent the last several years focused on the new content and technologies.  IdealWave feels confident that it offers a truly unique and unmatched value proposition to our clients.

Who We Are - Our Mission and Core Values

IdealWave's mission is to be the trusted retained executive search partner for exceptional companies that are shaping the future of convergence movement between the mobile providers, the internet companies and the media and content companies and developers.

Our firm has a reputation of delivering quality service to our clients and candidates. We pride ourselves on the following values:

Honesty                                                             Ethics

Mobile Market Specialization                             Knowledge

Building Positive Relationships                         Integrity

An explanation of Our Core Values

The Core Values of IdealWave were the impetus of its founding and grew from a personal challenge to build a company which, while achieving leadership in this competitive industry, would never compromise its values of integrity and ethics. Making the company's core values a daily touchstone to gauge and maintain its success rather than an exercise in public relations is central to IdealWave. Simply put, IdealWave is about being a positive and creative energy force in the executive search industry by helping executives achieve their career aspirations within the wireless industry while simultaneously providing leaders to our client companies. Each is of equal importance and the mutual satisfaction of both will provide IdealWave with success.

INmobile.org 

INmobile.org is the fastest growing and most exclusive community for executives in wireless. Launched in April 2006, INmobile.org brings together executives and key decision makers around the convergence of mobility, digital media and computing to discuss the marketplace, new strategies, business models, form partnerships, and innovate. Membership has grown exponentially since launch, forming a vibrant, active global community of executives that will navigate the next decade of growth.

History: In 2005 the principals of IdealWave noticed an increasing need for market insights into the pending convergence of telecom, digital media, and computing by the very executives who were to navigate this convergence. The very nature of the convergence of these dramatically different industries creates exceptional opportunity and uncertainty at the same time. IdealWave created INmobile.org to build a private, executive community facilitating and enabling an open and genuine exchange of ideas that forms strategic insights for the benefit of all members. IdealWave invited the founding 200 executives to the community and worked with Adam Zawel, the Chief Collaboration Officer, on how INmobile.org can continue to serve it's membership and the demands of the rapidly changing marketplace.

Future: IdealWave will remain involved in the growth of INmobile.org, partnering on new programs and initiatives that add significant value to the membership.
