We quickly build relationships with leaders, the board, and other stakeholders to help identify candidates who “fit” with the culture, or future positive culture. EFL will only present top candidates with the ability to move the organization to the “next level.”
We specifically seek and recruit diverse candidates with a passion for your specific organization and/or the population served. Last year, our firm placed 53%* culturally or gender diverse leaders. It is never a “one size fits all” approach and original research is conducted on every search.
Quote from Board
“Our global non-profit organization recently worked with Nancy Huckaba and her team at EFL Associates through a significant change of leadership. The support provided through this process was outstanding. EFL worked with our Board to develop a recruiting strategy that fit within our budget constraints while sharing key insights as we worked through the interview process. Nancy and her team were professional and responsive, working nights and weekends to meet our aggressive timeline. As an organization, we could not be more pleased with the outcome of the process and are extremely appreciative to the team at EFL Associates for their professionalism, expertise and hard work.”
