CoSN CEO Search Updates
Since Keith Krueger announced in August his plans to step down as CEO of CoSN, we have formed a search committee to assist in the transition and in the important role of selecting his replacement. Our goal is to keep members informed of the process and to provide avenues to participate, particularly through surveys and listening sessions. We understand that change can sometimes be challenging, but we are committed to making our process as transparent as possible and keeping lines of communication open with our members.
