What would happen to your organization if your key leaders suddenly left? For many organizations, this would have long-term negative consequences. This training presents several strategies to plan for changes in leadership and to develop your organization’s succession plans. This online blended training is designed for those in leadership positions within victim-serving organizations.

The training will be delivered online over the course of 3 weeks, beginning on April 2, 2018. Each week, except for the introductory week, will include a facilitated webinar. Additionally, there are recommended readings and videos as well as written assignments. You should expect to spend about an hour per week on these in addition to attending the 75 minute webinar. CEUs will be awarded for those who complete all requirements.

This training is part of the NVAA Effective Management Series and like all of OVC TTAC’s trainings, there is no cost to attend.
