In a livestream Q&A, Operation Underground Railroad’s president wouldn’t address the sudden resignation of longtime CEO Tim Ballard
Conference host Matt Osborne — president of OUR — seemed eager to head off any discussion of Ballard in his opening remarks. “Many people associate Tim Ballard as the face of our organization,” he said, mentioning that Ballard “stepped away” two and a half months ago. “We are forever grateful, and always will be grateful, for our inception, our founding and our organization. But what we’re even more excited to do is showcase the future,” he continued, introducing other speakers.
Of course, it’s hardly unusual for a company or nonprofit to withhold the circumstances of an executive’s resignation, or that remaining leadership would try to move past lingering concerns about such a shakeup. Still, multiple attendees asked for further clarification on why Ballard had parted ways with OUR. Osborne again acknowledged the elephant in the room without offering further details.
