You have to find an experienced Lead Engineer, Technical Manager or perhaps a Project Director for an important new project. You probably have a clear idea of the experience you need and the kind of person who would fit your organisation. The only thing is: that person is probably already working somewhere.

Others are not looking at all, but might listen when a position comes along that really makes sense. So how do you get that ideal professional into view, without opening the floodgates to a whole army of headhunters?
