Exit Right® Integrated Succession Planning
for Nonprofit Corporations

Chance favors a prepared mind.

Goethe wrote these words hundreds of years ago but they are nowhere truer than in the context of leadership continuity for nonprofit and charitable corporations.

• As an executive director or board president, are you worried about potential conflicts within the board once the succession dialogue begins?
• As a chief operating officer, do you avoid the notion that you won’t be around forever because you’re too busy making sure your organization is around for tomorrow?
• As a board member, do you worry that your chief executive officer will resign before your term on the board ends? Are you worried about getting it wrong or the perception of challenging existing leadership?
• As an executive director, has your board postponed or delayed dealing with the succession issue because it is perceived as too time consuming, too complex or too costly?
