Mind Share Partners (MSP) is a national nonprofit that is changing the culture of workplace mental health so that both employees and organizations can thrive. It does this for two reasons: to normalize what it looks like to have a mental health challenge at work--which is everyone at some point in their lives--and to address the workplace factors that can cause poor mental health for all employees/workers. MSP believes that if workplaces commit to reducing stigma, supporting their employees with mental health challenges, and addressing related workplace factors, they can drastically improve individual lives, company cultures, and workplace productivity.
MSP has been at the start of a growing movement to support mentally healthy workplaces and is poised to grow its impact with offerings that meet the increasingly complex needs of employers with customized workplace training, strategic advising, and implementation as well as its advocacy work. Over 50% of MSP’s revenue is from client services earned income, with the remainder from a range of philanthropic sources. As one of the only nonprofits exclusively focused on workplace mental health in an increasingly competitive space, MSP brings a unique mission and value proposition to this important work as both a trusted service provider and a movement builder. In close concert with the Board of Directors and the team, the CEO will guide the development of a newly refreshed vision to drive revenue growth and increased impact.
The next CEO will be an authentic storyteller, entrepreneurial visionary, exceptional fundraiser, and sales strategist who will drive the co-creation of MSP’s next iteration of a vision and strategic plan. They will demonstrate the ability to set clear priorities and goals, formulate and execute new revenue generation strategies, and stay agile to pivot in response to external conditions and impact data. The CEO will bring a nuanced, asset-based understanding of mental health as a spectrum, including an understanding of the intersectionality with DEIBJ concepts and the experiences of people with marginalized identities. They will be able to speak personally and openly about their own mental health experience and inspire others to support the organization and the movement. They will bring exceptional communications skills, sales and fundraising expertise, team management and leadership, and an entrepreneurial mindset to the work of elevating MSP’s mission and nurturing connectivity and culture among the team and stakeholders.
HISTORY AND VALUES
Mind Share Partners grew out of the idea that both employees and organizations should and could thrive in working relationships. Founder Kelly Greenwood knew that mental health is integral to the future of work as well as to diversity, equity, and inclusion. Old systems, practices, and styles that were negatively impacting employee mental health needed to be reevaluated in an effort to improve the future of work and DEIBJ in our country. Since 2020, workplace mental health has moved from a nice-to-have to a must-have, but few workplaces know how to execute well in this area. The pandemic’s lasting effects, racial reckoning, the political divide, and other factors created an unprecedented awareness of the mental health challenges and has normalized the conversation. MSP seeks to eliminate stigma and create more mentally healthy workplaces. MSP tripled its impact during 2020 and is seeking significant growth this year and beyond.
OPPORTUNITIES AND EXPECTATIONS FOR THE CEO
The CEO will be a seasoned executive leader (10+ years in a senior leadership role) who can passionately and authentically speak to current challenges in workplace mental health, the demands that C-Suite leadership and employees are facing to create and sustain supportive environments, and advocate for practical solutions. In collaboration with the Board and team, the CEO will create a 3–5-year strategic plan to grow and position MSP in an increasingly competitive client services landscape of well-resourced for-profit market players. Essential to success will be: (1) networks and relationships to drive business opportunity in client services and with new major donors, (2) examination and evolution of the client services portfolio to drive growth and maximize earned revenue, and (3) capacity and skill to drive thought leadership, movement building, and communications activities to support strategic growth and impact.
Revenue Generation: Fundraising & Sales The CEO will demonstrate skill in fundraising and resource development, including securing major gifts from high-net-worth individuals, foundation grants, corporate sponsorships, and the like to fuel growth. A core responsibility of the CEO will also be to drive sales and effective market positioning for the client services work. In addition to bringing networks and relationships for potential new work, they will build on a unique mission identity as a nonprofit and support development of new offerings that meet the moment for companies looking for tailored, flexible tools and strategies to measurably improve workplace mental health.
Movement Building The CEO will be an impactful spokesperson who can speak personally to the importance of mentally healthy workplaces across a range of external stakeholders including historically underrepresented communities, cross-sector thought leaders, advocates, and other strategic partners and influencers such as national press/media, nonprofits, companies, and coalitions – to share and build support for MSP’s vision and mission. In close partnership with the marketing and communications team the CEO will support strategic communications and movement building activities including building a social media presence focused on workplace mental health that will engage and grow an audience of followers, bylined articles, and other published contributions.
People Management & Culture Development MSP’s passionate team is the heart of the organization. Throughout the COVID pandemic, racial reckoning, national and global challenges, and internal organizational change, the team has tirelessly pushed to think differently about the changing and increased needs of MSP and its offerings. Aligned with MSP’s mission and vision, the CEO will build and nurture honest, authentic, and accountable relationships. They will embody and actualize an organization-wide commitment to listening to, working with, and learning from internal and external partners. The CEO will be a people-centered leader and strong manager with experience in hiring, coaching, and resourcing managers in a values-driven environment as well as implementing effective performance management practices to facilitate the team’s growth and success.
The CEO will support the development and growth of the team and a healthy organizational culture. Specifically, continued development and measurable progress on DEIBJ integration is critical, such that both MSP’s culture and its programmatic work reflects the organization’s collective understanding of intersectionality and centers the experiences and needs of people with marginalized identities. They will work to foster a culture that values equity, transparency, trust, clear communication, and collaboration across MSP while maintaining a healthy, flexible, and caring culture.
Financial Management & Stewardship In partnership with the senior leadership team, the CEO will lead and nurture a deeply committed team of 14 and bring strong business and financial acumen to manage an operating budget of $2 million and will advance effective business operations. This includes aligning growth with mission, planning for sustainability, and advancing internal policies and practices that reflect the organization’s core values.
Board Relations & Governance The CEO will partner with the Board to ensure transparency and accountability in organizational governance, financial health, and compliance, and identify current and future leadership needs. The CEO will also leverage the experience, relationships, and wisdom of the board to mobilize and motivate champions for the movement.

Chief Executive Officer Remote, based in the United States Founded in 2011, The Center for Election Science (CES) is a national, nonpartisan nonprofit organization focused on voting reform. CES brings better elections to people across the country through research, advocacy, and reform, with an emphasis on Approval Voting. Under Approval Voting, voters select all the candidates that they support - voters are not limited to just one choice. Approval Voting eliminates the problem of vote splitting that arises under the current predominant “Choose One” voting system. There are no complex runoffs, and Approval Voting costs virtually nothing to implement. Among similarly aligned candidates, Approval Voting promotes a healthy atmosphere of inclusion and cooperation rather than pitting similar candidates against each other (as Choose One voting does). Approval Voting is simple to understand, and it results in clear outcomes for candidates and voters alike. Implemented recently in St. Louis, Missouri, and Fargo, North Dakota, Approval Voting accurately measures voters' level of support for candidates in a way that Choose One Voting does not. Approval Voting allows any number of diverse candidates to run, while still giving every candidate a precise measure of their true support among voters. The next CES CEO will arrive at an exciting and transformational time in the organization’s growth. CES is poised to transition from an educational organization that initiates isolated campaigns TO a national advocacy and technical assistance entity seeking and pursuing national impact. CES seeks to be nationwide. CES seeks to have Approval Voting in every state. Reporting to the Board of Directors, the CEO leads the vision, strategy, and growth of The Center for Election Science and serves as the chief public representative of the organization. The CEO is responsible for providing strategic leadership for CES by working with the Board of Directors and other staff leaders to establish long-range strategic goals, policies, and plans. The CEO has the ultimate responsibility for ensuring that the strategic growth objectives of the organization are effectively achieved. The CEO both leads and works collaboratively with staff and coalition partners nationwide to pursue CES’ mission of educating, advocating for, establishing, and growing the use of Approval Voting. The next CEO of The Center for Election Science will have a deep-seated commitment to advocacy and experience in driving growth and impact. The Center for Election Science’s purpose and vision should excite and compel this individual. Candidates for the position must bring a sense of creativity, innovation, and a sense of collaboration with communities to the role. The successful candidate will have strong public policy and analytical acumen and will bring demonstrated skills in advocacy, government relations, and building support for a legislative/policy agenda. Given the unique challenges of the field, the next CEO must be equipped to lead and drive change at both local and national levels. The salary range for this position will be between $160,000 to $200,000 and will be commensurable with experience. The Center for Election Science offers a generous and comprehensive benefits package, including but not limited to Paid Time Off with 21 days annual required minimum, flexible hours, group health, dental and vision insurance, continuing education allotment, as well as a retirement plan.
