During the search process, we consider ourselves an extension of your team. We bring decades of experience placing nonprofit executives in a variety of leadership positions across the nonprofit sector. Rather than specializing in one functional area or type of organization, we bring a broader understanding of leadership skills and how diversity of experience can create stronger teams.
We get to know our clients’ organizational needs and engage stakeholders in the process. We build strong relationships with the organizations we serve and consider ourselves an extension of their teams. Forming a partnership with them from the start, we guide a collaborative and transparent process from beginning to end.
The Managing Partner and a Vice President are actively involved in every search throughout the process. We are involved every step of the way; recruiting and interviewing candidates, supporting search committees, conducting reference checks, and negotiating compensation packages with the final candidates.
With every search, we conduct in-house research ensuring current, comprehensive outreach tailored specifically to an organization and its needs and goals for the role, resulting in an inclusive and diverse candidate pool.
As a firm, we foster an inclusive culture that encourages, supports, and celebrates the diverse voices of our team and we seek to help our clients do the same. We are committed to identifying candidates across a wide range of backgrounds, experiences, and identities, and we strive to find individuals who will strengthen an organization by supporting a diverse culture.
We are responsive to client needs, communicate frequently, and remain accessible. We treat each candidate with dignity, valuing the investment they have made in the search. We inform them of the status of their candidacy throughout the search. Treating candidates respectfully and with kindness is a reflection of both us and our clients.
