The entire nonprofit sector faces major changes in leadership as the baby boomer age wave starts rolling toward retirement. According to the 2006 study “Daring To Lead,” 75 percent of executives plan to leave their jobs within five years and less than one-third have discussed succession planning with their boards. This major change in leadership is both a threat and opportunity. For that reason, the Annie E. Casey Foundation partnered with TransitionGuides to develop a place for long-term executives and founders to learn about succession planning and transition management, sharpen their plans for the length of their tenure and network with peers interested in this topic. This event will introduce participants to the workshop and to the two organizational development practices relevant to successful leadership transition.

We will discuss disposition strategies for the nonprofit sponsor, defining the asset manager's role in the disposition planning process, key factors to consider and how to create an action plan.
