Congratulations to our very own Kevin Flynn, Director of Recruitment and Candidates Services, for being selected as part of the 20011 cohort of American Express NGen Fellows, presented by Independent Sector.

The American Express NGen Fellows program gives emerging nonprofit leaders an exceptional opportunity to strengthen their capacity for future impact. Over the course of nine months, Kevin will collaborate with other talented under-40 leaders, interact with established mentors, and contribute to Independent Sector’s work on nonprofit impact and leadership.

Kevin is known by many as “the guy who knows everyone.” In his role as Director of Recruitment and Candidate Services at Commongood Careers, Kevin is responsible for building and maintaining relationships with nonprofit talent across the sector.

But that’s not all! Kevin manages our career advising program, as well as leads presentations on the topic of human capital at universities including MIT, Harvard, Yale and Boston University, and at the national conferences of KIPP Schools, Independent Sector and Emerging Practitioners in Philanthropy.

Kevin is also one of our most skilled search consultants, having led over 80 executive searches for nonprofit organizations and social entrepreneurs including Public Allies, College Summit and Year Up.

Please join us in congratulating Kevin. And look for great things to come from our resident emerging leader in the years to come!

    Kudos to Kevin and American Express. In the past American Express had a wonderful leadership training program for a long weekend.  I still remember that opportunity.  What a great partnership!  Keep up the great work, Kevin and AE!
