Non-Profit Roundtable (Milwaukee) | Building Leaderful Organizations 

10 years leadership development in the nonprofit sector has been gaining increased attention.  In 2006, a national research study of nonprofit executive leadership found that 75% of leaders planned to leave in 5 years. In 2011, the study was conducted again and although the pace of transition was dampened by the recession, executive turnover remains high.  The need for approximately 640,000 nonprofit leaders by 2016 sparked an examination of what we as a sector are doing to building the leadership pipeline.  What’s working? What can you do to build leadership throughout your organization?  

Learning Objectives:

1. Learn three approaches to succession planning: Strategic Leadership Development, Emergency Succession Planning and Departure-Defined Succession Planning.
2. Explore several strategies to strengthen leadership throughout the nonprofit sector, including executive leader development, emerging leader development, coaching and network leadership.
3. Identify what role you can play in building a leaderful organization.
