Search Firm

​

Maren has 15 years of coaching experience at the division 1 level in both the mid-major and power 5 conferences. As an assistant and head coach she has been intimately involved in hiring more than 10 assistant coaches and staff members. Over the past 4 years, her work as a program strategist and professional coach makes her uniquely qualified in running Elevating Leaders - The Firm.

The first of its kind, Elevating Leaders - The Firm, is a boutique search firm supporting head coaches hire for opening on their staffs. Next to recruiting talented players who 'fit' the program, surrounding ones self with complimentary and high performing staff is of upmost importance for every head coach. 

As a head coach, your runway is short and the stress is high. Having staff who balance your weak spots, while holding your vision of the program as their own, is paramount.​

From my own experience, I know I overlooked pink and red flags when hiring because the process was laborious and the candidates checked many of my 'must have' boxes. Each time I paid the price.

Elevating Leaders - The Firm, exists to bring a level of professionalism & integrity to the hiring process. With Maren's 'coach approach' she will spend time ensure you (the hiring HC) are clear on your values, what you need to be successful, and what does not work within the culture of your program. Maren will serve as your subconscious and act on intuition to gain clarity where deeper questions need to be asked - regardless of potential responses.
