The Common (and Sometimes Pernicious) Traps in Executive Transitions

The Editors

June 1, 2015

Cohosted by Nonprofit Quarterly, BoardSource and Raffa Associates

Presenters: Ruth McCambridge, editor in chief of the Nonprofit Quarterly and Ted Ford Webb, Vice President of Ford Web Associates

Drawing from a long career in executive search, Ted will walk participants through a set of sometimes amusing and sometimes frightening but always instructive stories about executive transitions gone right or wrong. How does one find the right match for an odd culture, deal with divisions on the board, and advise boards about how and when to communicate with funders, the community and other stakeholders.
