Oct. 1, 2013, is the deadline for applications to Rasmuson Foundation’s Sabbatical Program. Now entering its tenth year, the program offers an opportunity for nonprofit and tribal executives to take sabbaticals of two to six months.

An extended leave can lead to new perspectives for the leader, the board and staff, and often energizes organizational innovation.
