Interim Executive Directors
When your top leadership position is vacant, an Interim Executive Director ensures your nonprofit organization remains stable, focused, and well-governed through transition.
Our Interim EDs:
- Provide strategic oversight of all operations and programs.
- Support and guide staff, the board, and key stakeholders during uncertainty.
- Strengthen governance practices and board engagement.
- Assess systems, finances, and processes—and implement improvements.
- Prepare the organization for a smooth handoff to the next Executive Director.
Valtas in Action:
When a mid-sized human services nonprofit experienced the sudden departure of its ED, Valtas placed an Interim ED within two weeks. In six months, the interim stabilized finances, rebuilt staff morale, and laid the groundwork for a successful permanent hire.
Interim Development Directors
A leadership transition shouldn’t slow your fundraising momentum. Our Interim Development Directors provide experienced, hands-on leadership to protect revenue, strengthen donor confidence, and prepare your organization for long-term success.
Our Interim Development Directors:
- Keep annual giving, major gifts, grants, and campaigns moving forward without interruption.
- Maintain and strengthen relationships with donors, funders, and key stakeholders.
- Assess and improve fundraising systems, processes, and team workflows.
- Coach staff, partner with executive leadership, and engage the board in fundraising.
- Identify opportunities for immediate improvement while building sustainable practices.
- Ensure a smooth transition by preparing the next Development Director for long-term success.
With experienced interim leadership in place, your organization can maintain momentum today while building a stronger fundraising program for tomorrow.
Valtas in Action:
A regional arts nonprofit faced a critical development vacancy just before its major annual fundraiser. A Valtas Interim DD stepped in to ensure the event could still be held and implemented donor stewardship best practices that boosted retention for years to come.
