Dear John,

What would happen if your chief executive suddenly had to step down? Would it throw your nonprofit into crisis?

If you answered yes, you are not alone. Nearly 80 percent of nonprofits lack a written succession plan even though a long-term leadership plan gives donors and grant makers confidence in an organization’s longevity.

I’d like to personally invite you to join the Chronicle of Philanthropy’s upcoming webinar on October 24, Succession Planning: How to Get Started.

Elianne Farhat, head of TakeAction Minnesota, will share lessons learned from her organization’s recent transition. You’ll also learn from Sally Blue, a consultant who helps nonprofits with succession planning. Blue will outline key questions to ask as you begin planning, a roadmap with key steps in the process, and tips for handling a leader’s unexpected exit.  

The deadline for early-bird registration is October 17, so register now to save 20%. You'll get three downloadable tools: the roadmap, a sample decision-making grid, and a transition timeline.

Sincerely,

Eden Stiffman
