No Comments

I am excited to announce that I am creating and will be teaching Harvard Extension School‘s first-ever Nonprofit Human Resource Management course this fall.  This course will provide an introduction to the practices, policies, and theories related to nonprofit human resource management. Designed for those who are now or will be an HR practitioner or executive for a nonprofit organization, museum, school, or foundation, this course will prepare students with the knowledge and skills needed to manage human capital in a nonprofit setting.

Classes begin on Monday, September 9th.  This is a live, web-based course running through mid-December, and will include several nonprofit executive guest speakers.  Registration opens on Monday, July 29th.  Learn more here!

This year five art galleries in the beautiful SoWa district have generously donated their space:

Racism impacts all of us, and this evening gathers our community friends together to provoke thought around what each of us could do and will commit to fight racism and make a positive difference into the future, for all of our communities.

Happy International Women’s Day from Pillar Search & HR Consulting, a proud woman-owned small business!

According to the International Women’s Day website, “March 8 is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity.  International Women’s Day (IWD) has occurred for well over a century, with the first​ ​IWD gathering in 1911 supported by over a million people in Austria, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland. Prior to this the​ Socialist Party of America, United Kingdom’s Suffragists and Suffragettes, and further groups campaigned for women’s equality.  Today, IWD belongs to all groups collectively everywhere.  IWD is not country, group or organization specific.​  Make IWD your day – everyday.”
