Recruiting Extraordinary Leaders

What Our Clients Are Saying About Their New Leaders…

“We are confident that Tom Calderone is the right leader for Buffalo Toronto Public Media because of his vast experience creating content from different perspectives,” said Board Chair Alphonso O’Neil-White. “Tom loves Buffalo and Southern Ontario and is excited to bring his experience as an innovator in radio, TV, and music to serve our communities on both sides of the border.”

“We listened closely to what we heard about the essential attributes required to address the most important issues facing philanthropy right now,” said Jamie Merisotis, Board Vice Chair of the Council on Foundations and President and CEO of the Lumina Foundation, who chaired the search committee. “Our broad search was deeply diverse by race, gender, LGBT status, geography and other factors. After careful consideration, the Council is confident Enright is the ideal choice to steer the Council on Foundations’ course moving forward.”

"It’s been a privilege for the board to find someone who embodies all of the qualities and qualifications we identified The Texas Tribune needing in its next leader. Our north star was to find an executive with a passion for the work we do here at the Trib, and a leader with both a deep understanding of the functional and financial needs of a mission-based organization and a track record of high-impact leadership. We’ve found just such a CEO. Sonal embodies all these qualities and more," said Jim Schachter, The Texas Tribune Board Member.

“Mari’s energy, vision and experience in innovative philanthropy were the essential attributes we desired in the Fund’s next president,” said Jessie Ball duPont Fund trustee Leroy Davis, chair of the search committee. “We are confident that she is the right person to lead the Fund in its next chapter.”
