THE INTERIM DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR

There are six phases associated with a methodical engagement as an interim chief executive of a nonprofit organization. But how can those models and practices be adapted to result in an equally logical approach to the work of an interim chief development officer? Interim Executives Academy is proud to launch a new Academy that prepares aspiring and practicing nonprofit leaders to consider the application of its interim leadership models to the fundraising function.

This one-hour session will introduce Third Sector Company's approach to methodical interim leadership with discussion about its application to short-term strategic leadership as an Interim Chief Development Officer.

The next Interim Development Director Academy will be held in January 2026.
