Results-Based Hiring®
We use our Results-Based Hiring® framework to help associations recruit senior leaders, build high-performing teams, and align staffing decisions with evolving member needs, governance structures, and strategic priorities.
We have placed over 500 leaders in trade associations and professional societies at every career level. We have worked with more than 100 association foundations, certification boards, education institutes, professional societies, and trade associations with annual budgets ranging from $3MM to more than $450MM. We help associations overcome their structural staffing challenges at every stage of growth.
We’ve placed high-performing managers, directors, senior directors, vice presidents, and C-suite professionals across all functional areas of association operations and strategy, including:
Two years for CEOs and 18 months for every other career level.
Whether following a CEO transition, navigating a period of rapid growth, or addressing team misalignment, we help you design an organizational structure to support your future goals and create internal clarity around how work is organized and roles are defined.
When you’re growing quickly, launching new programs, or increasing in organizational complexity, we work with you to prioritize hiring decisions, define critical roles, and sequence your staffing plan based on budget and capacity.
We guide your team through an in-depth discovery to clarify your goals and define impact before crafting a custom executive search, organizational structure, or job design strategy. We uncover what your organization truly needs, then help you build a team to deliver it.
We offer fair pricing and decades of expertise across all functional areas and career levels, whether you’re hiring for a single critical role or restructuring staff to align with strategy. Our business model is built on partnerships—more than 87% of our work comes from repeat clients.
