My passion is helping organizations build high-performing leadership teams. I specialize in executive-level searches, identifying top talent through careful processes. I advocate for succession planning and developing internal talent to strengthen organizations and retain high-performing team members.
Hiring promising candidates at more junior levels and investing in their growth pays off! Every organization and role has different requirements, but certain qualities are always important. Here are five key traits I look for in employees at every level to hire the right people for a future-ready team:

The competition for senior talent in the nonprofit sector has increased after the pandemic, with many leaders changing roles, retiring, or seeking new opportunities. This trend is expected to continue for another year or two. There is a high demand for innovative and transformational leaders, especially at the CEO level, which has made searches more complex. Consequently, how are nonprofits finding these innovative and transformational leaders?
Read āNon-Profits Seek New Kinds of Leaders with Help from Search Firms,ā featuring insights from Nat Schiffer, CEO of The Christopher Group (TCG); Maeve Clifford, managing partner and co-founder of Pearl Street Collective; Michelle Kristel, managing partner of McCormack+Kristel; and Molly Brennan, global managing partner of the nonprofit and social impact practice at Diversified Search Group, along with my own, at huntscanlon.com/non-profits-seek-new-kinds-of-leaders-with-help-from-search-firms-2/.
Finding exceptional nonprofit leadership is vital to ensuring that mission-driven organizations continue to thrive and serve those who need them most. Thank you, Hunt Scanlon Media, for including our firm in your annual roundup of the 65 most prominent executive search firms serving the nonprofit sector.
Congratulations to our Network of Nonprofit Search Consultants colleagues that have also been recognized in this roundup: Aspen Leadership Group, BoardWalk Consulting, Bryant Group, Campbell & Company, Carlson Beck, Cook Silverman Search, Cooper Coleman, DHR Global, Envision Consulting, Kittleman & Associates, Lindauer, McCormack+Kristel, The Moran Company, and Noetic Search.

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. Read the 2024 Hunt Scanlon Media Non-Profit Executive Recruiting Special Issue, "Non-Profits Seek New Kinds of Leaders with Help from Search Firms," to gain more insights on the shifting dynamics of non-profit search from Shelli Herman and other industry experts.
