Three Keys to CEO Succession

Decades of experience have shaped the research of RHR International on the CEO Succession Process. Specific analysis of data from 18 companies across industries and geographies argues for three key success factors in an effective program. These are: 1) Alignment of the board around the organizational needs and resulting leadership requirements, 2) Understanding of candidates in terms of fit, given these requirements, and 3) Integration of the new CEO. Taken together, these elements define a process that other companies can follow to increase the likelihood of a well-managed CEO succession, whether planned or unexpected.
