About the webinar
Our latest “Building Your Leadership Pipeline” webinar delivered practical strategies for future-proofing organizations through effective succession planning.
Hosted by Nicole Forward of RHR International, the session featured insights from Dan Russell, Mike Peterman, and Kate Gawryluk of FactSet.
Key takeaways included the need to move beyond outdated tools like the nine-box model and focus instead on identifying and developing leaders who demonstrate readiness to scale—those capable of leading at an enterprise level.
Dan emphasized that organizations often mistake past performance for future potential, resulting in misaligned investments. He presented a five-step framework: set the foundation, identify talent, assess with valid tools, grow leadership capabilities, and measure impact. The discussion challenged the conventional high-potential model, advocating instead for scalable leadership as a more objective and inclusive approach.
Kate Gawryluk shared FactSet’s case study, outlining their shift from executive-only succession planning to a broader, data-informed pipeline initiative called the Leadership Advantage Academy. Using assessments, cohort learning, coaching, and in-person summits, they developed a critical mass of enterprise-ready leaders.
The webinar concluded with a call for transparency, data-driven development, and organizational buy-in to support sustainable leadership growth.
