Nonprofit Partnerships & Collaborations: Local Resources for Succession Planning

Thursday, December 7, 2006
8:00-11:00 a.m.
Maxine Goodman Levin College of Urban Affairs
Glickman-Miller Hall, Atrium

Presented by the
Center for Nonprofit Policy and Practice
and the Levin College Forum

In Partnership With: Business Volunteers Unlimited, the Cleveland Leadership Center (Leadership Cleveland, Cleveland Bridge Builders, (i)Cleveland and Look Up to Cleveland).

With Support From: The Cleveland Foundation and the Sisters of Charity Foundation of Cleveland.

Program
In a 2004-05 survey of executive directors, the Annie E. Casey Foundation found that 66 percent of Northeast Ohio nonprofits are likely to experience an executive transition within five years. This presents both a challenge and an opportunity for local nonprofits as they think about ways to plan for a smooth transition. Please join us for the second forum in a series looking at the issues of succession planning, executive transitions and available local resources on these issues.
