Door County, Wis. (September 15, 2022) – Effective September 7, 2022, Steve joined the organization as the Interim CEO. Steve has served the YMCA organization in a variety of positions over his 38 year career. Harty retired in December of 2018, after 20 years as the President/CEO, of the Greater Green Bay YMCA. “Steve’s reputation as a great collaborative leader and his ability to create a welcoming culture among staff and members make him the perfect fit for interim leadership for our Y”, says board chair Sally Pfeifer.
Steve states his guiding approach is simple, “leave things better than you found them”, advice that his father gave him. “The Door County Y has an amazing and hardworking team, and I’m excited to see what we can do in this time together”, says Harty.
The Door County YMCA Board of Directors will be working with YUSA to conduct a CEO search. Board Chair Sally Pfeifer, along with the CEO selection committee, anticipate having a new CEO hired by the end of the year with on-boarding of a new CEO in early 2023.
