OHSU Board of Directors announces presidential search committee, executive search firm
The OHSU Board of Directors today announced it has finalized the members of the OHSU Presidential Search Committee and selected a nationally recognized executive search firm to support the recruitment process.
“I am confident the search committee will deliver a diverse and highly talented pool of applicants for the board’s consideration,” said David Yaden, OHSU Presidential Search Committee chair and member of the OHSU Board of Directors. “We will be assisted in this work by Korn Ferry, an executive search firm with a strong background in both health care and higher education.”
The search committee will hold a kickoff meeting in early December and will begin working toward the board’s appointment of a new president by July 1, 2018.
“The goal is to bring finalists to campus in April for meetings and interactions with our internal and external communities,” Yaden said. “At that point, the process and names of finalists will be public.”
Search process updates will be posted to the OHSU Presidential Search website. Questions and input are welcome and can be submitted to presidentsearch@ohsu.edu.
