Ask a CEO who succeeds them and you usually get an answer. Ask who succeeds the two people below that, and the room goes quiet.

Succession planning stops at the top in most companies. The risk sits one layer down, where the next generation of leaders either gets built or gets recruited away by someone who saw them first.

RENEW maps that layer. We interview your executives, assess the team against 60 leadership characteristics, and hand you a picture of the bench you actually have.

Seattle gave a clear read on where the environmental services sector is heading.

The conversations at the EBI Pacific Northwest Environmental Industry Summit X kept returning to the same themes: leadership alignment, the talent needed to scale, and how firms are putting AI and data to work without losing sight of the fundamentals.

Thank you to EBI for a strong summit. We appreciate the perspective shared and look forward to continuing the dialogue.

You forecast revenue. You model capital and plan facilities on multi-year horizons.

Leadership capability usually gets a training budget and an annual review.

RENEW treats leadership as a strategic asset, planned and measured with the same rigor you already apply to the business strategy. That work starts with an honest picture of the team you have, benchmarked against your own industry, before anyone decides what to build.

The strongest endorsement in executive search is the client who comes back years later, at a different company.

Jeff Eckel, CEO, Americas at Hannon Armstrong, has done exactly that:

“John Ryan and the TRANSEARCH team have made a difference for me in two different companies, in two different decades. He is very good and I will hire TRANSEARCH the next time we need his services.”

Our 2026 mid-year read on construction shows a market splitting in two. Electrical and mechanical crews are commanding a premium, data-center demand is holding, and homebuilder consolidation is just now entering the picture. Activity almost everywhere else is softer.

A split market changes what a firm needs at the top. The leader who can run a business that is hot in one division and slow in another is not the same leader who ran an even boom across every division at once.

The hardest pressure on environmental services leaders right now is mostly about people: who leads the next phase, and how fast teams can scale to meet demand.

The EBI Pacific Northwest Environmental Industry Summit X on October 15 gives that conversation a home. Leaders gather in Seattle to work through the strategic questions shaping the sector, from growth and M&A to the expanding role of AI and data in how services get delivered.

TRANSEARCH looks forward to being part of the dialogue. If you'll be in Seattle, you can schedule time with Chris Swan here.

Only 7% of organizations rate themselves as leading on adaptability.

The other 93% are not badly run. Most of them built a leadership bench for a market that behaved differently than this one does.

RENEW helps executive teams separate the capability the next five years will ask for from the capability the team already carries, then designs the development work around the difference.

Nearly two decades with the same search partner, first as a candidate, then as a repeat client.

That is how Douglas Dayton, President of the American Concrete Pipe Association, describes his history with TRANSEARCH:

“TRANSEARCH International is the best executive search firm in the AEC industry. The team is fun to work with, but most important in my view is that they are trustworthy and 100% dependable. When they say they will, they deliver on time.”

US data center construction starts reached an estimated $77.7B in 2025, and through the first half of 2026 power and data centers are still where the activity concentrates. The mid-year read shows a real divergence opening, the firms with power exposure pulling ahead of everyone else.

That demand made transmission and substation talent the premium capability in the whole M&A market. The firms with that bench command the highest valuations, and every one of those deals opens a leadership seat that needs someone who has actually run a power practice, not someone learning it on the job.

How the power and data center wave is reshaping AEC leadership demand into 2026: https://transearchusa.com/insights/deals-of-the-year/

Energy transition, climate risk, and a steady wave of M&A are reshaping the environmental services sector all at once.

That is the backdrop for the EBI Pacific Northwest Environmental Industry Summit X in Seattle on October 15. It brings leaders across environmental, engineering, and technical services into the same room to compare notes on where the market is heading.

Chris Swan will be there on behalf of TRANSEARCH. If you're attending, we'd welcome the conversation.
