Episode 23 – Succession Crisis: Is the Nonprofit Sector Ready?
The challenges around leadership succession that the nonprofit sector is currently facing are nothing new. Back in 2019, the Senate Report, “Catalyst for Change: A Roadmap to a Stronger Charitable Sector” highlighted the issue and made recommendations calling on the federal government to work with the nonprofit sector to find solutions. Fast forward five years and what was already considered a serious problem has morphed into a full-blown crisis as many nonprofit leaders opted for early retirement during the pandemic. Is the sector prepared to navigate this crisis? Listen to sector experts discuss how organizations can better manage leadership transitions in this episode of CharityVillage Connects.
