  • The Carter Center Atlanta, Georgia
    LEADERSHIP PROFILE Chief Executive Officer The Carter Center Atlanta, Georgia “I am excited and energized about the next chapter of The Carter Center. Our most significant accomplishments are yet to come.” --President Jimmy Carter A COMPELLING OPPORTUNITY The Carter Center is a global leader in human rights, focused on peace, health and alleviation of human suffering. Founded in 1982 by former President Jimmy Carter and Rosalynn Carter, The Carter Center has saved and enhanced countless lives in over 80 countries. The Center seeks to prevent and resolve conflicts, enhance freedom and democracy, and improve health. It receives over $300 million a year in cash, pledges and in-kind support. Today the world faces unprecedented challenges to human rights, peace and health. Political polarization, eroding democratic principles, climate change, human migration, wars and human rights violations are proliferating. Addressing these and other significant issues calls for fresh approaches and adaptive strategies. The Carter Center is poised to enter a new era of impact. The Center is transitioning from a founder-led organization to one that is guided by the founders’ principles. The next CEO will build on a strong foundation, focusing the Center’s unique capacities and principles on critical current and emerging issues. “We must adjust to changing times and still hold to unchanging principles.” President Carter in his inaugural address The Carter Center CEO Leadership Profile, October 2019 Page 2 of 6 The next CEO will lead The Carter Center forward in ways that make the greatest possible difference. Building on the significant progress made by previous CEOs, Ambassador (ret.) Mary Ann Peters, CEO since 2014, has continued to strengthen the Center internally and externally and prepare it for the next phase of contribution.
