TJ Kastning
Founded the firm. Runs every search.
TJ founded Ambassador Group after years recruiting for construction organizations, watching misaligned leadership decisions cost projects, margin, and morale.
He believes hiring is a leadership discipline, not a transactional function. It shapes culture, capacity, and long-term outcomes. His work with clients focuses on clarifying expectations, surfacing assumptions, and helping leaders think more clearly about the environments they are creating.
TJ is involved in every search as guide and thought partner.
The real lever is the mirror.
The quality of a hire is principally driven by the leader. A leader's insight into candidates rises with their self-awareness. The industry has built itself around a simpler story: that candidate quality is the lever. We don't think that story holds up under scrutiny.

Not sell to you.
Ambassador Group works best with leaders who take hiring seriously. A 30-minute conversation is usually enough to know whether we're the right fit.
