Hi all,

In a bid to professionalize GAA, to institutionalize its various activities, and to free up Executive Members' time to develop long-term strategies and pursue new GAA-related opportunities, the present volunteer-run Executive Committee -- under the leadership of Mahendra Man Sakya -- is looking to hire a full-time Executive Director.

Proposed salary scale for the Executive Director is expected to be quite competitive with what fresh KU MBAs command in Kathmandu's private
sector.

GAA has property in a prime location in Thamel, and that's worth well over
2 karod (20,000,000 rupees).

The present Executive Committte, mostly composed of people who are either in or close to the private-sector, is looking for ways to make GAA a more financially viable, more vibrant, more inclusive, more networked and
more professionally-run alumni organization.

What follows is from Rajeev Pradhan, CEO of Lotus Holdings and GAA's present
Joint Secretary. Please refer this to interested/interesting candidates in and out of Nepal.
