Moving Beyond A Nonprofit’s Founder — Recorded Webinar

 
 

“Fabulous job! Thank you!”
– Webinar Participant

“I like how the webinar reframed the issue of “succession”
as an opportunity for diversifying leadership.”
– Webinar Participant

Founder’s syndrome is a real problem in the nonprofit sector. It happens when the organization’s founder, or a leader who has been there for a long time, becomes the sole decision-maker. And even if a nonprofit isn’t suffering from founder’s syndrome, they likely don’t have a succession plan in place for what happens if or when their leader leaves. The lack of a succession plan or an over-reliance on a founder puts an nonprofit’s future at great risk. Nonprofits must learn how to vest leadership not in one person but in the broader organization. This webinar will help nonprofits to:

• Determine if they are suffering from founder’s syndrome
• Move organization leadership from one person to a more sustainable, diversified leadership model
• Create an effective succession plan
• Communicate the plan to funders and other external stakeholders
• Secure consistent, long-term leadership for the organization
• Integrate your succession plan into your strategic plan
