Nonprofit Sector Practice>Board Collaboration

We believe that a successful nonprofit search begins with a firm's ability to provide expert consultation to trustees while navigating the political elements inherent within in every organization's leadership team.

A Socius engagement includes a leadership consultation proven to optimize the search outcome. It generates an authentic, clear and compelling view of the opportunity and insures the search will elicit attention from appropriately aligned sector talent. A few components of the leadership consultation:

• Construction of a highly effective search committee
• Consensus and clarity as to how the organization's current state relative to its overall lifecycle (past and future) impacts the talent profile
• Discovery of how the organization's organic cultural dynamics shape the search parameters
• Compensation discussion and advisory
• Crafting an authentic and detailed organizational and position profile that resonates with the organization's current alignment with its mission and strategic plan

Socius closely partners with organizational leadership throughout the engagement including interviewing, selection, offer, acceptance and executive onboarding.
