2024 Governance Intensive: Executive Leadership Transitions and the Board’s Role
Original recording date: Tuesday, Nov. 5, 2024
PURPOSE
Older adult services organizations are experiencing an increase in the number and frequency of executive transitions, and no longer can they expect to enjoy decades-long tenures of top leaders. Whether due to retirement, job change, or unanticipated departure, healthy organizations must have a well-thought-out transition plan for key executive positions to ensure the smooth operation and uninterrupted services to their customers and staff. As a nonprofit organization, the governing board plays a unique and important role in creating and executing leadership transition and succession plans.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES• Understand the board’s role in executive transitions and the distinctions between board and management roles and responsibilities.
• Explore the factors that impact an organization’s transition readiness.
• Recognize common missteps and assumptions that derail effective transition plans.
• Discover approaches, strategies, tools, and resources to assist in transition planning and readiness efforts.
• Develop a set of next steps for your organization to take to create a transition readiness plan.
• Hear from peer member organizations about their work in developing transition plans for their executive team members.
