Student Organization Officer Transition Information
Student organizations transition leadership much more frequently than most corporate, government, or community organizations. As a result, transitions are vital to the organization’s success and stability.
Successful transitions…
- Equip new officers with the tools and knowledge that they need to succeed.
- Build leadership teams and foster trust in the organization’s leaders.
- Maintain progress toward organizational goals and capitalize on recent accomplishments.
- Provide an opportunity for outgoing officers to reflect on their experiences in support of their future leadership and career endeavors.
