Ballinger | Leafblad, Inc.

Ballinger | Leafblad, Inc. is a Saint Paul, MN based executive search and selection consulting firm co-founded in July 2014 by Marcia Ballinger and Lars Leafblad. We work exclusively in the civic sector with organizations that do good—foundations, nonprofits, higher education institutions and professional associations. Good is different. And different is good. We bring decades of experience to the table—proven methods, deep insights and diverse connections. The classic way to do business. But then we get different—we reimagine the search process for the civic sector. We focus on building trust. We forge a long-term relationship. The business of good people is about collaboration.
