    Hi Rick:

    I offer a couple of insights to your question. The first is recognizing that this exercise is a signal of the need to build stronger capacity in the governance/nomination area of your board. This is important because the more you scale your organization you will have an ongoing need to expand your board composition with the needed additional skills and representations. The standard is you do that with the consent and engagement with your governance committee. Second, in terms of the where and how you source the potential candidates, I agree with most of what has been stated already.

    Good Luck.
