January 16, 2024 (Mankato, MN)<\/strong> \u2013 Greater Mankato Growth\u2019s search committee, tasked with the selection of a new President & CEO, announces the nationwide search process has now progressed to the candidate identification and selection process.<\/p>\nThe search committee has retained the services of Minneapolis-based search firm, CohenTaylor, to conduct the search. \u201cWe are honored to be chosen to lead this high-profile search,\u201d stated Chris Cohen, founder of CohenTaylor. \u201cWe are confident the next leader will be identified and successfully recruited to lead this outstanding organization,\u201d said Cohen.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am very thankful for the energy and engagement of the search committee members that have moved us to this stage in the process so efficiently,\u201d said Charlie Whitaker, Chair of the search committee. \u201cThe work completed in the closing weeks of 2023 included a competitive bid process for an independent search firm as well as the deliberate outreach to a broad cross-section of community stakeholders to gather their input on the attributes needed for this next GMG leader,\u201d stated Whitaker.<\/p>\n
The committee anticipates the search process will be completed early in the second quarter of 2024, following GMG Board approval.<\/p>\n
John Kind is currently serving as interim Greater Mankato Growth, Inc. President and CEO, until the new President and CEO is in place.<\/p>\n
