preparing for changes

With the Diocesan Campaign, some changes are in store. The campaign’s executive director was reassigned to a different project outside of the Diocese and someone else just moved in to take his place.
Since I’ve never been involved with anything like this, I am interested in discovering how switching out the ED at this point of the campaign effects everything else? Is this a cookie-cutter process that requires little time catching up?
I’ve met the new ED in passing and will have a more formal meeting with him hopefully this week.
In addition, the Diocese’s stewardship office, which is not running this campaign but working along side, has some interesting thought patterns related to what they will allow volunteers to do or not do. More on that later if it ends up having an impact on me.
