[nfbwatlk] TACID seeking an Interim Executive Director; would appreciate your consideration

[Mary ellen]

The attached announcement raises a question.  My question isn't about the
words in the announcement; it's about the way Acrobat Reader deals with it.
All the spaces between words disappear.  Every line is just one long,
uninterrupted word. That doesn't happen with all .pdf documents, but it does
happen about forty per cent of the time.  I can't tell in advance which
documents are likely to be like that and which aren't, except that the
documents from our school district are always run together and the documents
from the school itself are not.

Does anybody else have this problem?  If so, can I do anything about it on
my computer?  If I can't do anything about it, then what can the producer of
the document do about it?

I am sharing the attached position announcement with you because I thought
you might know one or more persons who would be well qualified for the
position.  As you know, Ken Gibson has accepted another position, and
TACID's Board is searching for an Interim Executive Director.

Attached is the position description for "Interim Director" of TACID.

Why "Interim" Director, you may be wondering.   Reply:  The TACID Board
members recognize the need for an Executive Director, but do not want either
our Board members or qualified candidates to feel they must rush into making
important decisions, since the Board was considering some possible strategic
alliances or organizational modifications prior to Ken Gibson's decision to
accept another position.

As is usually the case, we'd like to have found the ideal candidate and to
have filled the position "yesterday"!  However, we are realists who
recognize that both candidates and our Board members may have summer
vacation and other sorts of commitments difficult or impossible to change at
the last minute.

Although the attached position description is for an "Interim" executive, it
presents some key responsibilities  which need to be conducted not just in
the short term -- during the remainder of the summer and on through 2014 --
but also over the long term along with additional responsibilities defined
by the Board and the Interim Executive Director after more strategic
planning.

The search committee would appreciate receiving Nominations and applications
for this position by Thursday, July 31.  Please advise anyone interested in
applying for the position to please submit a cover letter and resume by
Thursday, July 31 to
executivesearch at tacid.org<mailto:executivesearch at tacid.org>  and/or to the
e-mail addresses of the search committee members and Chair of the Board.
(See below).

Similarly, nominations may be submitted by e-mail to those mentioned below
or to executivesearch at tacid.org<mailto:executivesearch at tacid.org>   Also,
you or anyone else may feel free to submit questions to one or more of the
people listed below:

FYI:  I happened to see a very intriguing monograph series about the roles
and value of  Interim Executive Directors of organizations in transition.
