The Chamber Casts a Bigger Net

Like a lot of its member companies, the Chamber of

Commerce

of the Princeton Area (CCPA) apparently is finding that good help

hard to find. The Chamber has been operating without a president since

shortly before Christmas, when it abruptly parted ways with C. Ellen

Hodges, who had led the chamber for 27 years — the only president

the chamber has ever had.

In the interim the chamber has received some 20 applications for the

position from area residents. But now the presidential search

committee

has initiated a nationwide search. It is accepting applications until

Friday, March 29, and requests that candidates apply online at

www.kornferry.com,

opportunity code WX331.

The Chamber’s search committee is headed by Michael Hierl, president

of the Pacesetter Group and chair-elect of CCPA. Members of the

committee

include David Holmes, head of the Eden Institute and CCPA chair; Jim

Carnes of Sarnoff; Phyllis Frakt of Rider University, Bob Hillier

of the Hillier Group, Jim Kilgore of the Princeton Packet; Joann

Mitchell

of Princeton University; David Newton of Palmer Square Management;

Richard Arons of Korn Ferry; and Herb Greenberg of Caliper.
