One of the most challenging transitions for many nonprofits is the departure of a CEO/Executive Director. Transitions in the senior leadership post must be handled with care to protect the reputation of the organization and maintain the trust of stakeholders. In cases where trust has diminished during the CEO’s tenure it must be restored and rebuilt, and the transition provides an opportunity to begin this process in earnest. In contrast, when a beloved and highly effective CEO leaves the top position at a nonprofit there may be an actual or perceived loss of momentum. Once again, the process must be handled with care to position the nonprofit to continue its tradition of achievement. In this workshop, participants will learn of the three-step process to Executive Transition Management using materials from the highly recognized organization, Compass Point and key experienced presenters.
