Leveraging Change to Create Resilience
Do you want to manage events or have events manage you? Today's nonprofit organizations operate in a more challenging environment than ever before. As a result, few events in the life of nonprofit organizations are as significant, as visible, or as stressful as when the leader leaves the organization. An ending is also a beginning; it requires just as much thought and planning.
Transitions are under-realized opportunities to strengthen nonprofit organizations. Most transitions are "non-routine" and occur due to an organizational crisis or the departure of a founder or visionary leader. Absent careful planning, these transitions have the potential to wreak havoc and create financial crises because the organization is left vulnerable because the board, staff, and new leadership are not prepared for the ensuing changes that naturally occur.
TransitionWorks provides help at a pivotal moment — if organizations approach the transition process as an opportunity to add capacity and strength. TransitionWorks, a service of Leadership Recruiters and Rosewood Consulting Group, brings a new perspective to succession planning.
