Description

Too often, hiring decisions are made around “fit” (comfort, familiarity, or shared style) rather than what the organization truly needs next. This session helps nonprofit leaders rethink their approach to recruitment through the lens of strategy, inclusion, and organizational growth. Participants will explore how implicit bias shapes hiring choices, why “fit” often reproduces sameness, and how to design selection processes that expand perspective and capacity. Whether you’re filling a front-line role or preparing for your next executive search, you’ll leave with practical tools to make your next hire both equitable and strategic.
