🚨 CEO Placement Announcement | UP Partnership 🚨 We’re proud to welcome Dr. Cathy Jones as the next Chief Executive Officer of UP Partnership, effective July 14, 2025. Dr. Jones is a respected regional leader and lifelong educator with over 20 years of experience driving systems-level change and equity-centered collaboration. Most recently, she led Austin Partners in Education, where she forged transformational partnerships across sectors to support student success. At Stronger Consulting, we were honored to partner with UP Partnership to lead this CEO search. From designing an inclusive process to aligning candidate evaluation with organizational values, we sought not just to fill a role—but to elevate a leader who could steward a bold, community-driven vision. Here’s what the Search Committee had to say: “Thanks to Stronger Consulting’s thoughtful process and deep experience, we found the right person to lead UP Partnership forward. The tools, interview frameworks, and performance tasks helped us make a confident, well-informed decision. We especially appreciated the structured approach and clarity at every stage of the search.” — Bobby Blount & Elaine Mendoza, Co-Chairs, CEO Search Committee This moment represents more than a placement—it’s an investment in UP Partnership’s Future Ready Plan, the community’s North Star: increasing postsecondary and credential attainment in Bexar County to 70% by 2030. Congratulations to Dr. Jones, and to the young people of San Antonio who will continue to benefit from bold, equity-centered leadership. #LeadershipSearch #ExecutiveSearch #StrongerConsulting #EducationEquity #FutureReady #SanAntonio #LeadershipTransitions #UPPartnership
