Wisdom and Best Practices

Responsible
Executive Search

No decision of your board has greater impact than the recruitment and hiring of a new head of school, principal, or administrator. Good News: You have some great options to consider as you determine how to navigate this journey with the highest likelihood of success.

Contracting with a retained search firm is an excellent option for some, giving the freedom to outsource the process and significant work involved. (Below we provide a links to search firms that we recommend.) Using such a service can reduce the workload of the board, but does require deep engagement at certain points to ensure clarity, accuracy, and commitment.

Schools with a strong mission, especially one that is faith-driven, should be very selective about the screening techniques used to attract and evaluate applicants.

For those committed to a self-managed search, we offer a unique hybrid option through our Executive Search Coaching. This gives you access to a proven process and critical tools to successfully find the best leader for your specific organization. And, through our unique training, you will build stronger relationships and a healthier organization!
