Music Director Transitions: The Case for Planning Way Ahead!

Handling music director transitions takes strategic planning, thoughtful leadership, and a keen sense of your organization’s culture as well as your community’s needs. Attend this session to learn from leaders of two choruses that have already navigated these waters and the consultant who helped them all along the way. You’ll hear how they managed the process, the bumps they encountered along the way, and their advice for others who will face this challenge for their organization down the road. As an added learning bonus for attendees, our panelists were involved in founding music director transitions, which can be particularly tricky.
