"One of the common errors of founder-presidents is to hold to the reins of leadership too long, thereby preventing the next generation from being prepared for executive authority. Though letting go is difficult after three decades of intensive labor, it is the wise thing to do."

(Denver, CO)?According to an AP report on Friday, Dr. James Dobson is stepping down from his position as Chairman of Focus on the Family, although he plans to maintain a "prominent role" at the organization.

Dobson had reportedly made his decision known to the board on Wednesday, but let the 950 Focus employees know his intent on Friday morning, during the monthly worship service.

The familiar host of the popular Focus on the Family radio program will continue in that role, until the "next voice for the next generation" can grab the baton.

In a statement, Dr Dobson said, "One of the common errors of founder-presidents is to hold to the reins of leadership too long, thereby preventing the next generation from being prepared for executive authority. Though letting go is difficult after three decades of intensive labor, it is the wise thing to do."
