Leading Workforce Changes: Legal Considerations for Mission-Driven Organizations

Tue, Jun 2, 2026 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm CDT

The mounting pressure of shifting funding streams, economic uncertainty, and evolving priorities is forcing organizations to confront one of the most painful decisions a leader can face: workforce reductions. Navigating this reality requires more than just careful planning–it demands a deep commitment to your team’s values, all while strictly adhering to complex legal requirements.

Don’t go it alone. Gain the clarity you need from a trusted voice at the highest levels of law and public service: Join us for a tactical conversation with Emma Leheny, a leading nonprofit attorney who has navigated multifaceted policy issues as Acting General Counsel at the U.S. Department of Education and as Senior Counsel for organizations representing millions of employees. Drawing on real-world examples, she will provide the legal advice you need to thoughtfully and strategically navigate:

  • At-will employment principles and their limits
  • Contractual obligations and key areas of legal risk
  • Anti-discrimination laws and equity considerations
  • Documentation and communication best practices

Come away with tangible guidance to help you lead through workforce changes in a manner that is legally sound, transparent, and remains true to your vital mission. Register today for this essential Leadership Learning Series session.
