Don’t let the work stall out.
Your purpose is to support young people—their growth, their development, their agency—so they can experience improved lives.
Your work is embedded within complex systems like Cross-Sector Initiatives, Place-Based Partnerships, Public Agencies, Nonprofits & Networks.
This work is personal. It’s relational. It requires vision, values and clear action.
So, when a senior leader departs, that vision, passion and relationships go, too. Projects stop moving forward. There is a risk that your work will totally stall out. In fact, we’ve seen it over and over again.
Staff feel betrayed, guilty, left alone. More staff leave. Board members either charge in with a takeover or retreat and stare at their shoes.
Without thought, care and intention, it can take an organization years to recover from a leadership transition.
Years where your work is not moving forward. Where young people, families and community members are not getting the services and support they need.
The succession plan was only useful until the transition was inevitable; now what?
We’ve got you.
