DESCRIPTION

Successful Executive Director Transitions

76 minutes
Recorded 11/9/2021
Instructors: Jim Morris, Mark Manner, Liz McClaurin, Emily Parish

Is your land trust prepared for a planned or unplanned leadership transition?  The Chinese character for “crisis” combines the characters for “danger” and “opportunity.” This is a fitting image for the transition of an organization when its ED departs. While crisis is optional, every transition does indeed pose both dangers and opportunities. If these are acknowledged and embraced, transition can be a valuable time of reflection and growth. If they are resisted, the transition can be both painful and damaging to the organization. Join long-time nonprofit organizational expert Jim Morris, Solid Ground, as he covers how you prepare with some very simple steps. We will also go in-depth on how the Land Trust for Tennessee successfully managed the transition from their founding executive director.

Here's what we will cover:

  • Creating an emergency succession plan
  • Building a sustainable leadership team
  • Preparing your board for the transition
  • Sustaining and strengthening organizational culture during a transition
  • Creating and maintaining organizational records and documents in advance of a leadership transition

Access to this recording will expire on December 31, 2022, and is subject to availability of the AdobeConnect service.
