According to Leading with Intent, only 34% of nonprofit boards have a CEO/executive director succession plan. But 50% of nonprofit CEOs intend to leave their positions in the next five years. This resource provides a list of key steps boards can take to start the succession planning process before facing the departure of a CEO.
Smart CEOs/executive directors — whether they’re running a business or a nonprofit — acknowledge that they will leave their organization at some point. Every job and every career ends in a transition — eventually. Read on to learn how CEOs can manage their retirement and prepare themselves and the organization for the next step.
One of the most important steps a board must take at the beginning of a CEO/executive director transition is identifying the type of transition the organization is facing. Has the organization enjoyed sustained success for the duration of the CEOs tenure? Is it underperforming? Use this resource to learn more about the different types of transitions and challenges the board may face during the process.
