National Non-Profit Practice

In many ways, leading a non-profit organization can be more challenging than leading a for-profit company. Non-profits support communities and have a large variety of stakeholders with different perspectives and expectations. Board members are typically deeply passionate about the mission and their contributions must be maximized and recognized. Pair all that with funding challenges and varied sources—governmental, private individuals, foundations, fee-for-service activities—and the complexity grows exponentially.

With many key non-profit leaders approaching retirement and few organizations have successors in place who are prepared to lead into the future, finding diverse talent in a very competitive marketplace requires non-profits to think differently. Salveson Stetson Group’s non-profit search practice specializes in providing a strategic, tailored approach to working with senior leaders, search committees and boards to ensure highly qualified candidates are identified and engaged throughout the process.
