David Eisner

The second-ever President and CEO of Convergence has served for three decades as a senior executive in the business, government, and nonprofit arenas, David Eisner brings passion and experience to problem-solving through community-building, coalition work, and civic engagement that bridge differences. He also brings a record of success at expanding scale and impact through entrepreneurial and innovative strategies that hinge on organizational learning, leveraging technology and building strong communities of support. As the Senate-confirmed former CEO of the Corporation for National and Community Service nominated by George W. Bush in 2002, Eisner righted the federal agency in the aftermath of a financial management crisis. Later, he oversaw the successful AmeriCorps response to Hurricane Katrina, expanded bipartisan Congressional support for national service and grew AmeriCorps by 50%. Leaving the Administration after the election, David chaired All for Good, building the nonprofit, open-source platform that animated President Obama’s signature service initiative, Serve.gov.
