Leading Through Crisis Before It Is Too Late

Leading Through Crisis Before It Is Too Late

March 24, 2026


In this episode of The Beacon Podcast, Dr. Kent Keith, president of the Carlson Keith Corporation, former president of Chaminade University and former CEO of the Greenleaf Center for Servant Leadership, joins host Dr. Stuart Gulley to reflect on leading a university through an existential crisis.

His insight is direct. Organizations rarely fail overnight. They decline slowly until hard decisions can no longer be delayed. For leaders, the discipline of strategic planning, early action and honest evaluation is essential to avoid crisis. A meaningful perspective for nonprofit leadership and board development.
