We respect that organization leaders are accountable to their constituents and in many organizations there is close scrutiny of where the money is spent. Leader Quest offers affordable options because we know this market and have the experience to help clients complete a search in a relatively short time frame.

It is important to emphasize that Leader Quest adapts to the needs of each client and we welcome the opportunity to discuss any additional client requirements.

Leader Quest offers workshops and orientation sessions for governing Boards and volunteers to equip them with the tools to govern effectively.

Our research and client experience affirms that organization success requires more than a staff who manage effectively  - the people who govern the organization must also understand how to govern effectively. Leader Quest will work with your governing body (Board, Council, etc.) to help individual leaders understand governance practices and to develop an approach that works well for your organization.

Is your organization all that it can be? What works well and what needs to improve?

Leader Quest has experience identifying how organizations can better meet the expectations of stakeholders. Leader Quest has worked with clients to evaluate organize-wide performance or to assess how to improve individual CEO performance. Our approach is constructive. We give clients the insight and understanding through detailed recommendations to move to higher levels of performance.

Clients turn to Leader Quest for assistance in creating the process and tools to define and measure staff performance. Our experience includes designing

• performance measurement/appraisal system
• incentive compensation models
• executive employment contracts
• position descriptions
• compensation research and analysis

Leader Quest has developed presentations and publications to assist volunteers. Please e-mail or call us for information.
