Sally Kuhlman

Hi, I’m Sally Kuhlman! I’m a lifelong connector with a passion for helping mission-driven organizations thrive. For over 20 years, I’ve worked in nonprofit leadership, communications, and marketing—building strong teams, elevating brands, and making meaningful connections.

This site used to be the home of my blog which I finally decided to retire after over 15 years of blogging! These days, I’m fully immersed in executive nonprofit search as a Senior Leadership Search Consultant at Stacy Nelson & Associates. I love matching purpose-driven leaders with organizations that are changing the world. There’s nothing more rewarding than finding that perfect fit!

Before diving into executive search, I led national programs at Beyond Differences, helping grow their school partner network to nearly 10,000 across the country. Before that, I was Chief of Staff at Hispanics in Philanthropy, where I co-led the launch of HIPGive, the first transnational crowdfunding platform for Latinx-serving nonprofits.

Entrepreneurial at heart, I started my own marketing and communications consultancy in 2002, supporting nonprofits and small businesses with strategic planning, communications, branding, social media, and online fundraising.

If you’re an executive leader looking for your next opportunity in the nonprofit world—or a nonprofit organization searching for the next person to lead your team—let’s connect! Find me on LinkedIn, and let’s start the conversation.
