Through six vivid, engaging stories of individual leaders of nonprofit organizations who let go of their power and position in order to further their organization’s mission through a merger, Jean Butzen provides an innovative, practical roadmap for executive directors, CEOs, and board member considering this strategy. Why were these leaders willing to risk their personal status and jobs? How did they handle the stress and uncertainty of seeing their organization absorbed into a larger one?

Each story contains the history of the leader and why they decided to seek a merger. Then the chapter walks through the process for completing the merger and, crucially, the steps each leader took to let go of their nonprofit and their position. The final chapters go into more detail about the steps, and summarize the advice from the leaders.

Butzen finds that all the leaders went through a similar six-step process. The result was always that the merger produced a stronger organization that better fulfilled its mission. And what happened to the individual leaders who merged themselves out of their position? They all prospered as well. Their stories provide both inspiration and practical advice on how to make a merger successful. But it all starts with the courage to let go.

Mergers are difficult to execute in every industry. In the nonprofit world, it is often the human story behind the merger that makes the difference. A wonderful portrait of six leaders who delivered successful mergers because they put they put their egos aside and focused on the mission of their organizations.

This is a very informative read especially for those whose non-profits are going through that difficult process of transition. Each of the cases presented are compelling and insightful, guided by the rich experience of the author and her extensive experience with mission oriented mergers. Highly recommended for non -profit leaders.

Helpful examples of "letting go" in nonprofit mergers

Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2021

Jean's exploration of 'letting go' adds to the merger literature. I appreciated the leaders' candid telling of their stories, learning the factors that influenced their merger decisions and the different ways their organizations' approached and achieved integration. Letting Go of Your Nonprofit is clear, concise and an important book for executives and boards considering mergers.

Required reading for any non-profit leader and board members.

Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2021

Short, fast paced, yet impactful advice that reminds us to focus on the mission and sustainability rather than individual non profit brands and identities.
