Non Profit Foundation
Executive Director

Background:   The Client, a Health related Non Profit, requested that The Artisan
Group conduct a search for an Executive Director, in a challenging geographic
area.

The Executive Director was tasked to manage a team of 9 individuals and run all
aspects of Development and Operations, to include Major Gifts (Individual &
Corporate/Foundation), Planned Giving, and significant Special Event Fundraising.
Ultimately the ED would be responsible for generating approximately $2 Million in
annual revenue.

Adding to the complexity of this search was the Client’s need to identify an ED
capable of energizing outreach and communications with new and prospective
corporate benefactors.

After constructing a detailed position description and Search Plan, a pool of five
candidates was presented for the Client’s consideration.

Following several rounds of interviews, a finalist was selected and presented with
an offer that was summarily accepted.  This search was completed in 83 Days.
