Chautauqua Institution Selects Heidrick & Struggles to Support Presidential Search 

Chautauqua Institution today announced the selection of  Heidrick & Struggles, a premier global leadership advisory firm, to assist in the search for its next president. This selection follows the search committee’s rigorous consideration of multiple national firms that responded to a Request for Proposals (RFP). The decision marks a significant step forward in the Institution’s leadership transition process, following President Michael E. Hill’s departure in May.  Former board member Kyle Keogh is serving as Interim Chief Executive during this search and selection process. 

Heidrick & Struggles brings decades of experience in executive search and leadership consulting, with a strong track record of placing transformative leaders in mission-driven organizations across the nonprofit, cultural and educational sectors. 

Nominations and requests for information about the role may be sent to Heidrick & Struggles at ChautauquaPresident@heidrick.com.
