The Search for the Next Vision Galveston CEO

The Vision Galveston (VG) Board is officially kicking off the search for the new Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of VG. If you missed our recent blog on the transition of leadership, you can CLICK HERE to learn more. The search will be lead by VG board member, Dr. Patrick Louchouarn and a committee of six other VG board members.

In my experience strong leaders serve their organization by building momentum that is not about them but about the sustainability and perenniality of the organization itself. Great leaders set their organization for success and support leadership succession. They see situations as infinite possibilities, and not limitations of finite resources. I personally think that VG is at this juncture of sustainable continuity because it has been set for succession and can attract a creative leader who will see the possibilities and the value that has been created (and those that have yet to be created). Vision Galveston and its Board bring together the most diverse and inclusive set of individuals that represent the multiplicity of voices and experiences that characterize our community. We are value-driven and committed to supporting quality and sustainable change on our island. This is an exciting time and we are thankful for the foundation Keath has built.”
