Succession Planning

No matter what, change comes to people and places. Whether by choice or circumstance, staff leaders will transition, and board members will come and go. What happens when a longtime executive director begins to think about retiring? Or an office manager or volunteer coordinator decides to leave for a different position? Or a founding board member or dedicated chairperson steps away from their leadership role? What happens if those with critical leadership roles unexpectedly or suddenly depart? Join Megan Motil of Parallel Solutions to explore ways you can strategically and adaptively navigate planned and emergency staff or board leadership succession. This 90-minute interactive session will feature presentations, polls, individual reflection, small group conversations and a large group debriefing.

Here's a look at what we will cover:

• Helpful mindsets, values, processes and resources to support intentional internal conversations and thoughtful organizational transformation.

• The link between these topics and leadership roles and competencies, stability and sustainability.

• Tools and approaches you can apply within your organization, regardless of where you are in a leadership change or succession process.
