Kestria Switzerland is entering an important new phase in its development, strengthening its leadership and laying the foundations for the firm’s continued growth.
Following an inspiring Kestria Global Conference in Singapore and the strong relationships they have built with fellow Kestria members, Eveline Muhmenthaler and Monika Vogt have decided to become co-owners and Managing Partners of Viavanta. In their new roles, they look forward to shaping the firm’s next chapter and contributing actively to the future of Kestria’s global alliance.
Viavanta is an executive search boutique founded in 2016 and based in Zurich. Guided by its mission, “Finding leaders”, the firm supports boards and management teams in shaping their future with new leaders. Its approach combines executive search expertise, in-depth knowledge of the Swiss market and a commitment to transparency.
„Future readiness is ultimately about people – and about future leadership. Human intelligence will determine how successfully organisations navigate change and shape their future. In my new role, I want to challenge and support our clients in building the leadership capabilities they need for what lies ahead, while bringing this perspective into Kestria’s global alliance.“
Eveline Muhmenthaler
„Curiosity has always been at the heart of how I work: asking the right questions, looking beyond familiar networks and understanding what truly shapes a market. Market Intelligence turns that curiosity into structured insight. My focus will be on strengthening this capability at Viavanta, creating tangible value for our clients, and sharing knowledge and best practices across Kestria’s international network.“
Monika Vogt
„Bringing Eveline and Monika into ownership is a very deliberate step for us. We are delighted by their commitment to Viavanta and by the opportunity to share entrepreneurial responsibility more broadly. Their experience, perspectives and energy will strengthen how we support our clients and create value for them.“
