Janet leads our US nonprofit practice and works on senior-level search assignments for foundation, government and nonprofit organizations, across all functions, including Executive Directors/CEO’s and their leadership teams.
Clients range from private, community and family foundations, to economic development organizations, to both large national and local nonprofits. Reflecting our corporate diversity mission and focus, many of these nonprofit clients serve disadvantaged populations or disinvested communities.
