Nonprofits face unique challenges in their governance structures, financial sources, staffing, and program management. LMA professionals’ extensive experience in nonprofit leadership make them well attuned to these issues when nonprofit organizations experience conditions of uncertainty, leadership change, or financial stress.

We can help particularly when a nonprofit experiences an abrupt change in leadership. In the role of interim CEO/president/executive director, LMA can ensure continued effective operation to give the board ample time to consider long-term leadership, without disrupting the existing internal balance of the entity.

DIRECT LEADERSHIP

• Chief Executive Officer of a university-based, separately funded, special purpose entity
• Chief Executive Officer of an educational foundation
• President of a multiple-accredited, degree-granting professional school
• Chief Executive Officer of a preservation organization
