  • Dear Friend and Partner, I am delighted to share DiverseForce will be handling WORC’s search for an Executive Director. WORC is positioned to grow and the new leader will have a wonderful opportunity to take the organization to a new level with a comprehensive FY24-29 Strategic plan to guide the way. I will transition to Executive Board Chair after selection and onboarding of the new Executive Director. In this new role, I will focus my expertise on funder relations, board development, strategy, and policy. The new Executive director will be responsible for all WORC’s day- to day- operations. I have had the privilege and opportunity to lead WORC since founding it in 1993. I decided now is the time to make this transition while I am healthy and vibrant as I embark on this next chapter and WORC will continue to thrive and grow under this new organization structure. Can you please share this opportunity with your personal and profession networks and, please, consider applying yourself if feel you qualify.  https://lnkd.in/exnevjHi Thank you again for your ongoing support and partnership. In service, Lynne
