New Trends in Shared Leadership

A Grunin Foundation Catapult Institute event:

For anyone interested in leadership, especially Board members, Executive Directors, and staff in leadership positions who work with Boards.

Increasingly, organizations are looking at different models of shared leadership from co-directors and board co-chairs to different organizational models. In this session, we’ll look at examples of shared leadership and discuss where and how all of our organizations might adopt and adapt these practices. We’ll also look at the benefits ranging from succession planning to greater organizational sustainability as well as the organizational challenges that might prevent us.
