Nonprofit organizations (NPOs) have a long and varied history in American society. According to the Annie E. Casey Foundation (2005) the results of a Nonprofit Executive Leadership and Transitions Survey commissioned in 2004 indicate large numbers of today's nonprofit leaders, members of the large Baby Boom generation will seek new roles, new careers, or retire. The transition of executives over the next five years will become an increasingly significant issue in the nonprofit sector (Annie E. Casey Foundation, 2005).
What is the effect of leadership change (transformational) on employee self-efficacy?
