Chief Executive Transitions: How to Hire and Support a Nonprofit CEO
by Don Tebbe
Don Tebbe, a management consultant, advises boards on the best ways to search for a new chief executive and to ensure that the incoming leader has everything he or she needs to get started.
Mr. Tebbe emphasizes that transitions have different stages and provides checklists of tasks that should be accomplished after every phase. He offers questions for board members, real-life anecdotes, and tips on how to find an interim chief executive.
An attached CD-ROM includes sample documents, such as a resume scoring sheet, transition timeline, interview questions, and a 90-day entry plan that helps new leaders get accustomed to their jobs.
