Learn to recognize problem areas in your organization and ways to implement solutions.Most leaders of not-for-profit organizations inherit problem areas that have arisen gradually over time. Prior leadership, instead of addressing these problems, has taken the easier route and not rocked the boat to fix these problems. Or more likely, prior leadership either did not recognize the problems or did not have the ability or resolve to solve these issues. This topic will help leaders to recognize the problem areas, understand the simple solutions and find creative and painless ways to implement these solutions. Most importantly, this will be implemented in ways most beneficial to the executive for purposes of achievement and recognition. To accomplish this, board management is critical, as is transparency throughout the process.
