Strengthening Corporate Governance for Leading Corporations
Founded in 2001, JamesDruryPartners is a board-focused management consulting firm dedicated to strengthening the governance capacity of the world’s leading companies.
Our founder, James “Jim” Drury III, launched the firm following a distinguished career in executive search, where he spent decades advising Fortune 100 CEOs and Board Directors. He brought with him not just experience, but a conviction that boards could – and should – operate with greater strategic clarity, leadership strength, and intentionality.
JamesDruryPartners represents truly exceptional executives, and the firm’s level of boardroom access is unmatched.”

Redefining Board Selection with BoardSelect®
Early in our firm’s evolution, Jim identified flaws in the traditional director search model – its methodologies were passive, reactive, and disconnected from the director candidate’s strategic interests. In response, we created BoardSelect – a first-of-its-kind, executive-driven process that redefined board selection.
