Paramjit Dhillon

Of counsel, transitions and mergers

Helps a board plan the day the founder steps back.

Paramjit advises boards through the changes that matter most to a nonprofit's survival: a founder's departure, a new executive director, a merger or an orderly close.

She has seen handovers go well and badly, and she says the difference is usually a board that began talking about it a year before it had to.
