Non-Profit and Civic

How we read this market

Board experience changes the questions we ask.

Our CEO and Founder serves on the board of a Minnesota nonprofit, including committee work on finance and strategy. That vantage point shapes how Landing evaluates candidates: how they handle restricted funding, a working board, program economics, and the authority they will actually have to change how the organization runs.

Search and advisory

The open role may be only part of the operating question.

Landing starts by separating a talent gap from a market, process, or organization problem, then defines the engagement around the work that needs to change.

Talent

Executive Search

Write the mandate from the work, not the old job description.

We define what the hire must change, build, or protect, then use that mandate to shape the market, the interview, and the evidence required from each candidate.

  • Executive and professional search
  • Individual contributor through C-suite
  • Retained, exclusive, and selective contingent engagements
Performance

Management Advisory

A new hire cannot repair an unclear market position or a broken sales process.

We isolate the relevant commercial or organizational constraint and give leadership a practical basis for deciding what to change.

  • Market position and sales effectiveness
  • Organization design and leadership development
  • M&A and operational diligence
  • Product, process, people, and platform analysis
