Navigating Change: The Journey of Seven CEOs

Host Organization: Northern California Grantmakers

About

We are once again seeing a wave of transitions among foundation CEOs in our region. These transitions have come about in a number of different ways. A significant number of CEOs retired from their positions. Others have come about due to the natural evolution of careers, interests, and opportunities. Whatever the case, understanding what these transitions are like for the leaders—current and former—is instructive to both the field and the larger community.

Join us for this last NCG program of the year where we will be in conversation and celebration for new and outgoing foundation CEOs. This is an opportunity to learn about their leadership, change philosophy, impact, and a glimpse of life after and beyond philanthropy.

Join us to:

  • Learn about effective management of transitions for both incoming and outgoing leaders
  • Hear from a range of philanthropic leaders—those who have helmed their organization for a decade or more, to leaders who have just assumed their positions
  • Hear stories, experiences, and insights about what it’s like to steer organizations that have such significant impact in communities and trying to address intransigent issues
  • Celebrate our philanthropic leaders
