ISFIS and Grundmeyer Leader Search Services have partnered to help Iowa school districts recruit, interview and hire leaders that fit best with your district’s values and goals. Grundmeyer Leader Services got its start in 2014 with Trent Grundmeyer at the helm, supporting school boards with the full hiring process. Since then, GLS has expanded to not only hire superintendents but also specializes in hiring principals, athletic directors and school business officials.
With the partnership between ISFIS and Grundmeyer Leader Services , newly hired administrators receive access and insights into their district’s financial health and history through a comprehensive financial review with ISFIS personnel, ensuring a smooth and informed leadership transition.
