What does “succession planning” mean in your organization? Nonprofit executives and their boards often react nervously, even negatively, to the idea of leadership succession discussions. And according to BoardSource, 73% of nonprofits don’t have a written succession plan.

A change in leadership is always a challenge, and COVID-19 has put more pressure than ever on nonprofits. Not having a succession plan creates a huge risk for your organization if there’s a sudden vacancy in a key position. But leadership transitions also provide opportunities for growth if your organization has a culture focused on developing the human capital it needs for the future.

The Nonprofit Association of Washington and Third Sector Company are pleased to offer this two-part webinar series to help your organization build such a culture. “Succession Planning Re-Imagined” will:

- Frame succession planning as essential to your organization’s long-term sustainability
- Outline the essential components of an effective succession plan
- Present five options for beginning your organization’s leadership continuity work
- Provide specific tools and resources to support that work
- Empower you to become the champion for succession planning and leadership continuity in your organization
