Good judgment starts with listening.
For an employer, the discussion starts with the actual mandate: what this person will own, how the team works, and what success needs to look like. For a professional, it starts with the work, environment, and priorities that would make a change worthwhile.
Discretion matters on both sides. Discuss what may be shared, with whom, and at what point before an introduction. A résumé or client relationship should never be treated as permission to circulate confidential information.
Specific experience and relevant market relationships are best discussed directly. The purpose of this site is to help you arrive prepared for that conversation.
