A desire to remain – what is the answer?
• Can you accept that you are no longer the senior leader?
• Can you accept that programs and initiatives that began under your leadership will change and may even end?
• Can you keep your personal opinions regarding the new leader or changes being made to yourself?
• Are you willing to share your knowledge and connections to assist the new leader in being successful?
![Page 27: Leading Through Transitions - General Assembly...Leading Through Transitions PCA General Assembly June 2020 Dale Kreienkamp, SPHR •Speaker •Author •Human resources Consultant](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051912/6002bd15c77d94153d69d048/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Search process
• Divide the work up within the committee
• Interviewing candidates
oBy phone or Virtually –consider 1 person to moderate
oThe goal is for the candidate to talk more than the committee members
![Page 28: Leading Through Transitions - General Assembly...Leading Through Transitions PCA General Assembly June 2020 Dale Kreienkamp, SPHR •Speaker •Author •Human resources Consultant](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051912/6002bd15c77d94153d69d048/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Interviewing candidates
• Focus on what’s important to learn
• Questions tend to get specific responses to that question
• Example: “What are your outreach programs?”
• Example: “Tell us about what you do for stewardship”
![Page 29: Leading Through Transitions - General Assembly...Leading Through Transitions PCA General Assembly June 2020 Dale Kreienkamp, SPHR •Speaker •Author •Human resources Consultant](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051912/6002bd15c77d94153d69d048/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Interviewing candidates• Go broader - asking them to
respond to a topic of importance
• Example: Share your thoughts with us regarding
oStewardship
oWorship
oOutreach
• Then use follow up questions to explore further

Search Process• More interviews = more feedback
about the candidate
• Group interviews

1) Candidate sharing personal & learning
2) Limited questions
