“Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes” – New Leadership, New Opportunities
We’ve all been there, done that. A new Board president. A new CEO. And everything in between. It can reinvigorate an organization, or it can be a headache.
Join us as Lincoln Center Theater featuring Ide Dangoor, Board Member, Naomi Grabel, Executive Director of Development and Planning, and Karin Schall, Associate Director of Development and Manager of Special Events, explore the joys and challenges of new leadership.
Afterward, please join us for a tour of this world-renowned theater. A light breakfast will be served.
Don't miss this incredible opportunity to gain valuable insights and explore the iconic Lincoln Center. Reserve your spot today!
Instructions to entering the Vivian Beaumont Theater:
To ensure a seamless experience, please enter through the Vivian Beaumont Theater Lobby. There will be signage on both the Plaza level doors (under the neon signs for UNCLE VANYA).
