Management Support

The Executive Director of Future Possibilities was resigning as manager, continuing as Chairman of the Board. To help effect this transition, I was asked to serve as an advisor to the new Executive Director whose prior experience had been in the corporate sector. We had weekly telephone conferences, reviewed planning documents by e-mail, and had occasional meetings with the Chairman of the Board. Topics included preparation for Board meetings, office systems, staff resource allocation, personnel decisions, and strategic planning.

Through changes in Board membership, the founding Executive Director of the Arab American Family Support Center found herself with a board that was not supportive of the agency's mission and her leadership. Through legal intervention and negotiation, the board agreed to resign. An interim Board was appointed and I am now working with them to develop a Governance plan and recruit and orient board members who will support the organization's growth.
