Robert Diggs

Diggs joined NPAG in the Fall of 2021 and was promoted to Senior Associate in the Spring of 2023 where he holds a generalist practice that spans the breadth of our clients, as well as the positionality of the searches we undertake.

Diggs joined NPAG with nearly a decade of operations and strategy experience across the for profit, and nonprofit sectors. He joined NPAG after leading community engagement, external partner relations, and virtual event strategy for a year and a half at RSA US – one of three international affiliates of the global fellowship organization the RSA (royal society for the encouragement of the arts, manufactures and commerce). While there, Diggs also project managed the launch of the Decolonizing Design Coalition. Prior to RSA US, Diggs spent half a decade at the Pennsylvania Consortium for the Liberal Arts (PCLA) – a higher education consortium of eleven small liberal arts colleges. Originally hired as employee #2 by the founding executive director, Diggs spent his final two years managing board relations, executing daily operations, grants management, and leading on strategic planning efforts as a one-person office.

Outside of NPAG, Diggs is currently serving as secretary of the board of the Better Business Bureau’s Wise Giving Alliance – the charitable sector watchdog of the BBB ecosystem.

Diggs holds a bachelor’s degree from Franklin & Marshall College and received a Certificate in Nonprofit Executive Leadership from Indiana University – Purdue University Indianapolis. He is also a proud graduate of The Lawrenceville School, Prep for Prep (Prep 9), the Brooklyn School for Collaborative Studies, P.S. 20K, and Little Sun People.

A native Brooklynite, Diggs makes his home in Lancaster, PA, is a long-time Mets fan, a new fan of the Premier League club Brentford F.C. and enjoys playing and watching tennis.
