Henrietta Yelle

Search Consultant

Henrietta Yelle, search consultant, has a talent for making meaningful connections with and between people. She strives to create opportunities for others to find joy in their professional, philanthropic, and personal lives. With long experience in nonprofit philanthropy as well as sales and marketing, she brings well-honed communication and networking skills to her role as a search consultant for nonprofit executives.

As a major gift and capital campaign fundraiser at Mass Audubon for 15 years, Henrietta developed firsthand knowledge of prospect engagement, as well as experience helping a nonprofit organization realize its goals and objectives. Prior to her tenure at Mass Audubon, Henrietta spent 20 years with PG Calc as vice president of sales and marketing. In this role, she helped increase the company’s customer base from 100 to 4,000 clients, giving PG Calc the lead market share position in the planned giving industry.

When not connecting people to people, Henrietta is often found outside with a pair of binoculars around her neck, as she is an avid birder and curious naturalist. 

Henrietta earned a Bachelor of Arts magna cum laude in French language and literature from Colby College.
