If your not-for-profit hasn’t conducted an executive search since before the pandemic, anticipate an altered search landscape. For example, the job market now is tighter and, given the prevalence of working from home, candidates may not want to consider relocating. A search committee of board members should keep comprehensive, up-to-date job descriptions for executive positions and list the knowledge, skills, abilities and attitudes required. Also, the committee will want to discuss compensation to ensure your nonprofit’s offer is competitive with those of similar organizations. Contact us for more information.
