Case Study : Chief Executive Officer

Nonprofit organization specializing in economic development support

After a period of hyper-growth that doubled the size of the team, the board of directors of a nonprofit dedicated to economic development support had to replace the roles of President & CEO, which had until then been held by the organization’s founding individual.

• The challenge was to assist the founder in her transition while collaborating with the board of directors to:
• Identify the ideal profile to lead the next strategic plan;
• Develop analytical tools that ensure alignment between leadership, the team, and the executive;

Overcome a major constraint: recruiting outside of the organization’s extensive network of partners, which significantly reduced the pool of potential candidates.

The LTC touch

Thanks to in-depth expertise in evaluating managers, a nuanced understanding of leadership styles, and complementary experiences—coupled with a focus on the transferability of skills—LTC was able to identify the ideal candidate outside the existing ecosystem.
