jafar Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 August 29, 2006 - After a national search for an executive director, the Madison Scouts Board of Directors has narrowed its list of candidates and has begun interviewing its top choices. Criteria essential to the position include but are not limited to: an intimate awareness of the corps and its history, an understanding of the corps’ philosophy, leadership experience, a business background, and an eagerness to maintain and further develop the performance and organizational excellence of the Madison Scouts. Although the Board recognizes the importance of selecting a leader and establishing an administrative team for 2007 and beyond, it also recognizes the greater importance of making the best possible decision for the long-term interests of the Madison Scouts. The board is working through its established process and will make further announcements as decisions are made. Your patience during this period is greatly appreciated!

sburstall Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 hopefully well hear something soon I'd rather have them take thier time and find the exact someone they need. This is a position that can't be a rushed decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobrien Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 That's as much information as anyone should need at this point. They're taking the time to find someone who can embrace the direction they want to go and build the corps back up, and it's more important to get it done right than to get it done quickly.

WordRider Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 This letter answers our question on whether or not Madison Scouts are going to return 2007. According to the Board, they are shooting for 2007 and beyond. Terrance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tubawarrior Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 (edited) i must have missed something....was there really any question that the Madison Scouts would field in 2007??? I'm sure they will have someone in place in time for the season Edited August 30, 2006 by tubawarrior Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gantang Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 If they're doing a nationwide search, how come we haven't seen an announcement about the opening? Where are they advertising, or are they just looking at certain people? It seems like they could be limiting their choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stxmoose32 Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Glad that they posted this. Always good to assuage concern and let the masses know you hear them. Also nice to hear that they have narrowed it down to some candidates. Maybe the head is actually on the shoulders the right way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where are they advertising, or are they just looking at certain people? It seems like they could be limiting their choices. I would imagine that any qualified candidate follows the activity closely and is fully aware that there is an opening in Madison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc66 Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Yeah, I was positive that Monster.com would have had the job posting by now... Gee, I guess I must have missed it. Dang it...and, here I want the job of being scrutinized by an entire on-line community, only to be eventually terminated... Pity... <sarcasm off> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
