Member Thought Leadership
There is a growing trend of corporate leaders transitioning to purpose-driven roles in not-for-profits, driven by a desire to align their work with their values, especially during times of crisis. Successful commercial leaders often seek to give back later in their careers, leading to peaks in such transitions after events like 9/11, the Black Lives Matter movement, and the COVID-19 pandemic.
Simultaneously, not-for-profits are increasingly recruiting leaders from the corporate sector to gain fresh perspectives, improve efficiency, and achieve ambitious growth goals.
