Our Approach

LNS Partners specializes in supporting the identification and introduction of field-changing leaders to organizations dedicated to creating lasting, positive impact in the social sector. Our expertise lies in cultivating the interest of values-driven executives in your mission so that they may join you in guiding your organization toward achieving its program goals, strengthening its culture, and empowering communities.

Beyond identifying and attracting mission-driven professionals to consider leadership opportunities in your organization, we structure and facilitate search processes that can help you evaluate candidates in a way that is rigorous, personal, and reduces bias in selection.

Our approach to search is grounded in true partnership, mutual exploration, and people-affirming practices that recognize, accommodate, and celebrate difference across a range of dimensions. The phases of our executive search can be tailored to meet the distinct needs of your organization. Please reach out to learn more.

Leslie nair, principal

I take pleasure in learning about people and organizations and helping them tell their stories in compelling and resonant ways that naturally bring together those with shared values and complementary skills and interests. My background includes executive search experience in the for profit space, and, since 2010, education and social impact sectors. Clients, colleagues and candidates appreciate my responsiveness, tenacity, inclusivity, and relational style that fosters trust and confidence, quells the anxiety of teams in transition, and leads to robust, diverse fields of candidates.

I look forward to connecting to discover how we might partner together.
