About William Vanderbloemen

William Vanderbloemen is founder and CEO of Vanderbloemen Search Group. In 2008, William combined more than fifteen years of experience as a senior pastor with the best practices of executive search to forge a brand-new industry: executive search for values- and faith-based organizations. The firm is known worldwide for excellence in identifying talent and values matches for teams and has been recognized with numerous awards: Forbes Magazine named it as one of the best small businesses in the country. Entrepreneur magazine named Vanderbloemen as the best company culture in the country. William is regularly invited to speak in both church services and as a resource to churches and conferences on leadership. William is the author of multiple books including, "Next: Pastoral Succession That Works," "Search: The Pastoral Search Committee Handbook," and "Culture Wins: The Roadmap To An Irresistible Workplace." Vanderbloemen has studied data gathered over the last fifteen years and lessons learned in three thousand searches to determine what habits the very best candidates exhibit and how others can learn those habits. This research study resulted in his newest book, "Be The Unicorn: 12 Data-Driven Habitsthat Separate the Best Leaders From the Rest."
