The transition of leadership can be difficult to navigate but is imperative for the success of the organization. It is imperative to make sure every new member of the organization has a copy of your constitution and by-laws. This will help to unify your members by informing them of the opportunities that exist for participation and the procedures they should follow to be active, contributing members. A thorough study of the constitution and by-laws should be a part of officer training and transition. Each organization is responsible for the training of new officers. Student Affairs suggests a transition guide be created by each organization to ensure important policies, procedures, etc. are understood and followed.
