The Talbott Talent Executive Transition Model:

 

  • Talbott Talent will conduct a brief organizational assessment. We will develop a strategy, detailing the transition action steps, timeline, and stakeholder roles and responsibilities. The transition plan will include the profile of your future leader, an exit strategy for the incumbent CEO, and a transition process to transfer responsibilities to the next leader.

  • We will advise and assist your search committee in hiring a new CEO to lead you into the future. Armed with insight collected during transition planning, we will facilitate a local, regional, or national search, handling every aspect of the search process, including identifying, screening, and recruiting a diverse pool of qualified candidates; creating a fair and consistent interview process; and managing negotiations and a final offer with a signed letter of hire.

    Talbott Talent employs a recruitment-based approach to your CEO search, meaning we don't wait for candidates to come to us; we proactively seek out only the best and most qualified candidates to lead your organization.

    Using our three-step search process, we will partner with you to identify potential candidates based on the position profile; recruit and screen qualified candidates; and guide the search committee through interviews, negotiations, and the final offer.

  • To ensure a smooth transition in placing your new CEO, we recommend a comprehensive onboarding plan. We will develop and execute an onboarding plan that will set up the new CEO and your staff and volunteers for success. Our onboarding approach accelerates relationship-building and 30, 60, 90-day goal setting. This process ensures your new leader steps into their role with the trust and confidence of the board, staff, and other key stakeholders.

 

Our passion is nonprofit leadership.

We pride ourselves on our flexibility to adapt and meet our clients' needs while consistently promoting best practices in executive recruitment.

With Talbott Talent’s Executive Transition Services, you’ll have the tools and expertise to find your next nonprofit CEO and flourish, all while ensuring you have a plan and strategy in place for a successful transition.
