We serve mission-focused nonprofits.

Change at the top doesn’t have to create chaos.

Leadership transitions in nonprofit organizations come with a different kind of weight. You’re stewarding a mission, a team, and often the legacy of a founder or long-tenured director. Whether the shift is years away or already in motion, the goal is the same: to move forward without unraveling the culture or losing momentum.

We serve Christian nonprofits of all sizes and focus areas - from local outreach ministries to national networks—helping boards and executive teams plan and walk through leadership transitions with clarity and care.

What you’re navigating…

  • A beloved executive director is preparing to retire

  • A co-founder is ready to step away, but the future feels unclear

  • You’re considering restructuring roles or releasing staff

  • You want to avoid board misalignment or donor anxiety

  • You need help caring for the person while protecting the mission

These are not just HR challenges. They’re leadership moments, and they shape your future culture.

We guide nonprofits through two types of transitions:
