Houtson, we have a problem!! When an employee sends a calendar invite to
many people and then changes jobs, that appt becomes uneditable when the
employee leaves the co. and their profile is disabled. Is there a way for an
exisitng meeting organizer to assign a new organizer or grant editing rights
to a different person? This is a company-wide problem, as people change jobs
or leave, that we have not been able to resolve - is the cause of much
confusion within calendars and much frustration for admins who have to sort
through the mess and try to clean it up for the 'new' person.

The organizer cannot be changed. You must delete the original meeting and
have the new organizer issue a new invitation.
 
Hi Brian - this is causing a mess with our compnay calendars - when someone
leaves a position in which they have set-up numerous recurring meetings for
the entire year, we are not able to edit or change them ... is the no way to
assign editing rights to someone else? please??
 
There is not a way to do what you wish with Outlook (that I am aware of).

However, I would suggest that it would be better for you to have a separate
account created for this purpose. This would be called a resource account
and could be named something like "Meeting Maker". If all meetings are
made by this resource account, then the "changing of guards" would be
of no concern, just give the next guy the rights to be the resource.

We use this at my place of work (Over 10,000 clients) and it works quite
well.
