How it Works: Succession Planning in Tucson
• Board Nominations: Nominees to serve on our Board should have been Activity Group chairs or co-chairs prior to nomination. There are some exceptions.
• Executive Board: Should have previously served on the Board
• Succession planning- nominees from the previous year who did not get the position
• Activity group chairs and co-chairs• Member orientation – help new members find an Activity
Group
Questions for Dianne?
• Are you waiting for your next president to come to you or do you find them?
• How do we groom future leaders? – Put them in positions that they can be successful– Acknowledge their hard work and efforts– Talk about their future in NAWBO– Set up a seasoned board member to mentor them– Encourage them to step into a more visible leadership position– Let her know that you think she is “presidential” material
Succession Planning Starts Early
Recruiting a President-Elect/President
• Assess the time commitment that you expect of your leaders• Can you hire a part-time virtual assistant or executive director? • Do you need to rearrange some responsibilities?
• NAWBO Columbus added a Vice President board position to enable four years of consistent leadership.
• The first Vice President becomes President-Elect, the President-Elect becomes President, and the President becomes the Immediate Past President.
• If you don’t have enough nominations reach out to those who have previously served on your board.
• Some former board members may now be ready to step into a president-elect position
