Kestria, the world’s largest executive search alliance, held its 2026 Global Conference in Singapore from 13th to 15th May 2026. The annual in-person event brought together partners from six continents to strengthen global relationships, foster cross-border collaboration and explore new opportunities for growth.

This year’s conference theme, “Beyond Growth: Leading with Authenticity. Building with Trust”, reflected Kestria’s commitment to sustainable growth built on strong relationships, transparency and collaboration across markets. Throughout the three-day programme, partners participated in strategic discussions, interactive workshops and networking sessions focused on leadership, innovation and the future of executive search.

A key highlight of the conference was the client event “The Power of Being Authentic: The Currency of Modern Leadership” held on 14th May, which welcomed C-level executives from multinational organisations across the industries. The event created valuable opportunities for exchanging insights, strengthening the Kestria brand and deepening international business cooperation between member firms and global clients.

The conference agenda featured sessions dedicated to cross-border business development, leadership in times of transformation and the evolving role of executive search in a rapidly changing global market. Partners also explored how trust, authenticity and collaboration can drive long-term success for clients and organizations worldwide.
