[Lnc-business] Executive Director Search

[Elizabeth Van Horn]

Agree.  I can imagine someone applying for an executive position, and 
having their name given to a large number of people, even other 
"executive" persons at the place of potential hire.

This is why companies have an HR department, and potential hires and 
their names, should be handled with the upmost care.

The more people who know, even though told it's confidential, the bigger 
chance the information/names being leaked.

Some people have publicly shared that they've applied, but that's the 
prerogative of those individuals.  For those who haven't done so, please 
do keep their names confidential.  It undermines our level of 
professionalism to do otherwise.

Thank you,
EVH
