Advocating Efficacy and Joy in Your Family Philanthropy

INTERIM STAFFING & EXECUTIVE SEARCH

Interim staffing

Hiring staff

Perhaps your trusted employee has just moved across the country and you're in a panic. Or you're thinking of hiring staff, but you aren't sure if that will work after years of doing things the same way. Philanthropy Sherpas can serve as interim staff as you search for the best candidate or while you decide whether you want staff or not.

In addition to understanding all aspects of grantmaking, my experience includes serving as executive director for four different nonprofits, including a family foundation. I know how staffs support boards, have excellent communications skills, and perhaps most importantly, love philanthropy.

​
"I need an executive director."

When a foundation reaches this point in its life-cycle, or must replace a long-time employee, you'll find that executive search firms charge significant fees. Only a few have experience in the philanthropic sector, especially the grantmaking side of the equation. My substantial knowledge of the field and its players — and the unique family dynamic issues that can come into play — allows me to manage a successful search process.
Julia has been a long-term consultant to our small family foundation —helping with grant decisions, asking the right questions, and inspiring us to plan strategically for the future.
