Steve’s Professional Journey
- Radical conversion to Christianity led to a desire to engage in missionary work.
- Early career at World Vision, rising from data analytics to senior leadership.
- Steered World Vision through remarkable growth
- Co-founded the Masterworks agency to help Christian organizations achieve their missions
- Explores both successful and disastrous leadership transitions in ministries and nonprofits
- Motivated by seeing many failed successions and the pain they caused leaders and organizations.
- Principles in the book help prevent disasters and create healthy, honoring transitions.
- Leaders pushed out or dishonored, losing trust with donors and staff.
- Lack of celebration and poor communication can cause sharp declines in donations and morale.
- One example: A CEO with an eight-year plan was forced out early, leading to significant setbacks for the organization and its finances.
- The outgoing leader is honored and included in succession planning.
- Successor is a strong culture fit, and overlap provides continuity.
- Example: World Vision’s transition from Rich Stearns to Edgar Sandoval, with collaboration, respect, and discernment
- Example: Trueface’s founder mentoring and supporting his successor, then returning to serve new opportunities
- Founders unwilling to let go can hinder organizational growth and succession, sometimes cycling through multiple potential successors.
- Steve’s personal experience: Gradual transition and willingness to let the new CEO lead, maintaining a respectful, supportive relationship
- Friendship and an ongoing relationship between predecessor and successor help ease the transition.
- Boards should include outgoing leaders and senior staff in the hiring process and bathe the process in prayer.
- Hiring from within increases success rates; mentoring multiple candidates is wise.
- Start succession planning years in advance.
- Prioritize culture fit and internal candidates when possible.
- Foster humility, respect, and communication among all parties
- Boards must recognize their own limitations and seek input from those who know the organization best.
- Prayerful discernment is critical at every stage.
