During periods of transition at MFIs – whether it be transformations, mergers, or acquisitions – institutional stakeholders often encounter challenges with organizational governance and the alignment (or misalignment) of interests among founders, management, board members, staff, donors, and investors. Such issues not only complicate an already-difficult transition, but also sometimes delay or even derail the entire process.
The Center’s Elisabeth Rhyne and Deborah Drake will be hosting a USAID Speakers Corner online discussion from April 13-15 to explore the challenges presented by transitions. Participants are encouraged to share their own experiences, questions, and comments.

Hi Kelly! I’m a regular reader of this blog and would love to write a guest post for it, which may come in handy if someday your schedule doesn’t permit you to write your own post. Please let me know if you’re interested and I can share the topic I have in mind for this site.
All I ask in return is that I be allowed to link back to my own blog, which is also about microfinance.
Looking forward to your positive response.
Regards.
