Letter from Board of Directors

Dear Friends, Alumni, Partners and Supporters of Future Leaders in Action,

Since 2015, we have enjoyed working with Kirsten Abel, Executive Director, as she led FLIA from an idea into a thriving organization. We have developed a strong organization foundation, and we are excited for what will come. As Kirsten completes her tenure with FLIA as the Executive Director, we have invited her to join Future Leaders in Action’s Board of Directors.

The Transition Committee will lead the process of permanently filling the position. The Committee is led by Board Member, Juan J. Ramirez, and includes Board Treasurer, Julie Stapor, and FLIA Alumnae and Board Member, Clare Connaughton, and Executive Director, Kirsten Abel. FLIA will be accepting applications for the Executive Director position through February 15, 2021, and applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis. Please see the Executive Director job description here. We invite those interested to apply, and for others to share with individuals who would be interested.

In order to ensure a smooth transition, the new Executive Director and Kirsten will overlap for a period of training and support. We are confident that this will be a smooth transition for our fellows, alumni, partners, and supporters.

If you have any questions about the transition or FLIA, do not hesitate to reach out to Kirsten or Transition Committee Chair, Juan.

Sincerely,
FLIA Board of Directors
