SAN DIEGO, Oct. 9, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Toft Group Executive Search, a global life sciences and healthcare executive recruiting firm, today announced that its President and Chief Operating Officer, Ron Giannotti, has been appointed to the Board of Directors of Center for Community Solutions (CCS), a non-profit corporation providing support services for survivors of sexual assault and relationship violence. Mr. Giannotti will also become chairman of the fundraising committee for the 50th Anniversary of CCS, which is planned for Spring 2019.
"We are very grateful to have Ron's insights, leadership expertise and commitment at CCS. As President and COO of Toft Group, Ron plays a key leadership role in driving the company's diversity initiative, and empowering women through greater representation of women in the C-suite and board rooms at healthcare companies. Toft Group's vision of a truly equitable, dynamic workforce aligns with our mission to lift up and support women when in need," said Verna Griffin-Tabor, CEO of CCS. "The sky is the limit in terms of opportunities that await CCS and we are so excited to have Ron as a partner in raising awareness of our mission as we head into our 50th year serving victims in the San Diego region."
Founded in 1969, CCS is committed to solving the problems of relationship violence and abuse to improve the lives of survivors, and change the social conditions that lead to violence and assault. The organization assists more than 22,000 San Diegans each year and operates the only Rape Crisis Center for the City of San Diego.
Mr. Giannotti has more than 35 years of healthcare executive leadership experience, with a focus on commercialization of novel medical diagnostic and therapeutic devices. Mr. Giannotti joined Toft Group as its President and COO to lead the corporate growth initiatives including the firm's San Francisco expansion.
As a leader in executive recruiting for life science and digital health companies throughout California, Toft Group is focused on sourcing diverse talent to ensure that companies continue to grow and meet their objectives. Unlike other executive search firms, each year Toft Group places women in more than 40 percent of its executive roles, helping to close the diversity gap in life sciences and healthcare high tech.
Community involvement is a central focus of Toft Group's diversity initiative. In addition to its role in supporting CCS, Toft Group's CEO Robin Toft serves on the boards of three additional non-profit organizations in leadership and healthcare.
"CCS is a vital organization in the Greater San Diego Area that does incredible work to support women in extraordinarily difficult circumstances that negatively impact their mental and physical well-being, and livelihood," said Mr. Giannotti. As a career healthcare executive, my passion is to help people get better, faster, healthier. I'm looking forward to bringing my expertise to CCS to evangelize and advance their cause, and continue to lift up and empower the women of Southern California."
