Is your organization ready for your departure? Very few organizations seem to have thorough plans for leadership succession.  A transition in any senior leadership position, planned or unplanned, brings challenges that can throw an unprepared organization into chaos. Thinking through key decisions ahead of time and committing those decisions to writing can head off serious problems.

Join The Association’s CEO, Jim Tedford, who will walk you through the process he used to develop a robust Transition & Continuity Plan designed to help our Board and staff navigate a CEO departure.  Should he leave through termination, voluntary or involuntary, disability, retirement or —heaven forbid— death, the planning document will minimize stress and maximize the likelihood of a seamless transition. 

This one-hour, interactive Clinic will guide you through the planning process including how to approach the topic with your board, what might surprise you in the process, and how to develop your own Transition and Continuity Plan document. In addition to guided mentorship from our CEO, you can commiserate and brainstorm along with your colleagues during this impactful hour.

This exclusive virtual workshop will be led by Jim Tedford, CAWA, President & CEO, The Association for Animal Welfare Advancement.
