Non-Profits Seek New Kinds of Leaders with Help from Search Firms As seen in Hunt Scanlon Media's recently released Non-Profit Executive Recruiting newsletter, recruiters say that non-profits, generally, are increasingly seeking executives and #management teams who can provide strong #leadership, articulate a compelling vision, and inspire stakeholders. “Executive search for non-profits is quite active at the moment,” said Nathaniel Schiffer, CEO of The Christopher Group, Agile HR Business Solutions. “Many #nonprofit organizations are looking to strengthen their leadership teams to navigate the complexities of the current socio-economic environment. The demand for experienced leaders who can bring strategic vision, operational efficiency, and fundraising expertise is high. As non-profits face increased pressure to deliver on their missions with limited resources, the search for capable executives who can drive growth and innovation remains robust.” Read more >> https://lnkd.in/eck_TgF

Executive search in the non-profit sector mirrors broader hiring trends, focusing on leadership, strategic vision, and organizational impact. Non-profits need resilient leaders who can navigate crises, maintain stability, and deliver on their missions. Post-pandemic, there is fierce competition for talented individuals, especially at the CEO level. Private sector professionals are increasingly drawn to non-profit roles for their sense of purpose and fulfillment. While this shift creates more opportunities, it also introduces new challenges.

Emergence of a New Generation of Non-Profit Leaders As seen in Hunt Scanlon Media's recently released Non-Profit Executive Recruiting newsletter, there’s a palpable energy fueled by the emergence of a new generation of #nonprofit leaders. “Like their predecessors, they are driven by a strong sense of purpose and a desire for impactful work,” said Michelle Kristel, managing partner of McCormack+Kristel. “However, they are more likely to change jobs in pursuit of opportunities for growth and impact and, of particular importance to younger staff, to find organizational cultures that are aligned with their personal #values. The combination of a wave of executives retiring and the openness of next-gen leaders to explore new opportunities has created a dynamic environment for #executivesearch within the non-profit sector, driving significant activity in the market.” Read more >> https://lnkd.in/eck_TgF

Catching up on some reading and just finished this thoughtful piece from our friends at Hunt Scanlon Media. One of the (many) things that drew me to joining Lindauer and the executive search field is the moment in time in which we find ourselves as a sector - many long-time #nonprofit leaders retiring, more and more boards committing themselves to recruiting talent whose perspectives & experience/expertise have been historically disregarded/uncentered, and a new generation of leaders who are not oriented towards long tenures in any one organization. Lots of change happening when it comes to landing the best talent to advance the impact of the #nonprofitsector, and that change means approaching this work differently than has been the case traditionally, and search firms like ours are well-positioned to be your partner. As I work to build out Lindauer's President/CEO/Executive Director portfolio, I am excited to work with #NonProfitBoards, Board Chairs, and Search Committees to fulfill their organizations' missions and visions by recruiting the very best leaders for the moment-in-time in which they find themselves. If you're a tasked with leading a search for a new President/CEO/Executive Director, please reach out! I'd be honored to work with you.

Non-Profits Seek New Kinds of Leaders with Help from Search Firms As seen in Hunt Scanlon Media's recently released Non-Profit Executive Recruiting newsletter, executive search for the #nonprofit sector often mirrors broader #hiring trends, with a distinct focus on #leadership, strategic vision, and organizational impact. Recruiters say that non-profits, generally, are increasingly seeking executives and management teams who can provide strong leadership, articulate a compelling vision, and inspire stakeholders. “While the non-profit world is facing threats from an unprecedented number of sources at this moment in time, the sector continues to steadfastly adapt and evolve to meet the needs of our society,” said Maeve Clifford, managing partner and co-founder of Pearl Street Collective. “Economic fluctuations mean rising costs, tighter budgets and increased competition for limited dollars. As a result, we’ll see more organizations diversifying revenue streams and investing in resources that could pay dividends later. Mid-size, major, principal, and planned giving programs are on the rise, as are social enterprises and fee-for-service models. We’ll also see more organizations forming strategic partnerships, creating cost-saving efficiencies while amplifying impact.” Read more >> https://lnkd.in/eck_TgF
