About the Toolkit:
Leadership transitions are pivotal moments in a nonprofit’s life, and when navigated with care and intention, they can strengthen your organization’s mission and culture.
Developed by the Maine Association of Nonprofits and informed by nonprofit leaders, practitioners, and transition experts, this comprehensive toolkit helps organizations navigate Executive Director and CEO transitions with greater confidence, intention, and care. Updated in 2024 to reflect evolving best practices, equity-centered approaches, and insights from the field, the toolkit provides practical guidance, tools, and templates to support every stage of the transition process, from planning and executive search to onboarding and transition support.
