Source EQ is a boutique healthcare executive search and recruiting firm founded by Christine Rossell, MBA in 2018. We have placed 500+ clinical and executive leaders across every sector of healthcare — from FQHCs and CCBHCs to PE-backed behavioral health platforms, concierge medicine practices, and major health systems.
Every Source EQ search uses the EQ Factor — a proprietary assessment methodology developed by Christine Rossell that evaluates candidates beyond credentials. A strong resume tells you what someone has done. The EQ Factor tells you who they are and whether they will succeed in your specific organization.
The EQ Factor emerged from two decades of observing what separates healthcare leaders who perform well on paper from those who actually transform organizations. The credential gaps are rarely the issue. The cultural misalignment, the leadership capacity gaps, the emotional intelligence deficits — these are what cause placements to fail. The EQ Factor is designed to surface these factors before the hire, not after.
Every candidate presented by Source EQ has been evaluated through the EQ Factor framework. You receive a curated shortlist of three to five professionals who have been assessed for clinical competency, leadership capacity, cultural alignment, and genuine enthusiasm for your specific opportunity — not a stack of resumes filtered by keyword.
We learn your organization, your culture, your team dynamics, and exactly what success looks like in this role — beyond the job description.
Direct outreach to passive candidates in our network — people who are performing well in their current roles and not on any job board.
Deep candidate interviews assessing emotional intelligence, cultural alignment, leadership capacity, and genuine commitment to your mission — not just credentials.
Three to five vetted candidates who have been assessed across all dimensions and are genuinely excited about your organization.
We stay engaged through offer negotiation, close, and the first 90 days to ensure a successful transition.
