Korn/Ferry News & Media
I removed these from the article. They need to be integrated into the article text with citations. A section listing news coverage and mentions isn't appropriate. • BusinessWeek: Korn/Ferry CEO Gary Burnison talks to BusinessWeek about the Global Talent War

• Associated Press: Sequels to iconic CEOs rarely as good as original 01.15.09

• Boardmember.com: Board Recruitment Tips for Obama's Cabinet Search 12.01.08

• The Economist: CFOs and the Financial Crisis 10.30.08

• Forbes.com: Talent Search 11.14.08

• BNet: 5 Tactics for Landing a Board Seat 10.21.08

 * Forbes: Forbes ranks Korn/Ferry This article concludes do-it-yourself searches are as good or better. Korn Ferry did better than three the three other firms in the study. 01.14.09

COI: User Nmroberts + User:Kohl22
I note a number of edits on this article by Nmroberts. The account only seems to edit this article. Having checked, I note an N.M. Roberts is a marketing assistant at Korn Ferry. I have hence reverted the majority of the edits this evening by Nmroberts, retained the factual number chnages, and placed a COI tag on the article. I have also requested that Nmroberst read our rules on COI, and adjust their editting appropriately. Rgds, --Trident13 (talk) 23:38, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Nmroberts now seems to have been replaced by Kohl22:. COI tag still applied. Rgds, --Trident13 (talk) 20:49, 13 June 2012 (UTC)

New Logo
Korn Ferry released a new logo and changed their name to not include the "slash." Can we update the logo image and title?

Serols
Serols has decided that the promotional content flagged here is something no one should remove. I disagree. I believe the tag at the top of the page, and we should remove advertorial material. Further comment here would be welcome! 2001:569:712B:C000:458C:EBFF:1BA8:1DFE (talk) 09:25, 13 October 2018 (UTC)

Date error in History
In the second paragraph of the History section, it states:

"In 1999 the firm went public with an initial public offering (IPO), but in 1974 reacquired all outstanding shares to become private again.[6]"

This does not make sense logically, so must be incorrect. (I am not sure what the dates should actually be.) 198.70.201.220 (talk) 20:32, 3 February 2020 (UTC)
