Your year as an officer is coming to an end and new officers are being selected. How do you leave your position gracefully? How do you ensure that the new officers are ready to continue to provide your organization with strong leadership?

The responsibility of both the outgoing and incoming officers

A way to help the group avoid starting over or starting from scratch every year

Minimizes the confusion of leadership changeover

A great opportunity for outgoing leaders to evaluate the year

Helps incoming leadership absorb the special expertise of the outgoing leadership.
