Each search begins with a pre-search study in which Academic Search spends extensive time on campus, researching the distinctive history, culture, strengths, and challenges of your institution. We listen carefully to key stakeholders--including trustees, faculty, students, staff, alumni, and community leaders.
Your consultant will work with the search committee to develop a position profile that includes:
- A presentation of the institution’s distinctive strengths;
- An analysis of the opportunities and priorities facing the institution, and
- A description of the specific attributes and leadership characteristics sought in the successful candidate.
The search profile becomes a critical tool in the generation of candidates through individual recruitment, national distribution, and website posting at Academic Search.
