Dear Lucy Leader … Finishing Your Leadership Role
Dear Lucy Leader,
I’ve enjoyed serving as a leader but it’s time for me to serve in another way. Do you have any tips on what I should tell my successor?

Dear Departing Donna,
Thank you for serving as a leader in LWML. And thank you for recognizing the importance of a smooth transition between you and your successor.
First of all, thank and praise God for the opportunity to serve Him. Make updates to your files. Clean house – don’t pass on things the new leader will not need. Meet with the new leader to make sure she understands the position and assure her that you will be there as a servant, resource, and mentor. Go over the files with her so she has a general understanding of the information you passing to her. And most importantly, pray for and with the new leader. You can find more details at www.lwml.org/posts/leadership/stay-calm-and-transition-on.
Thanking God for your leadership,
Lucy Leader
