Successful Executive Transitions: The Right Resources, Support and Focus for New C-Suite Leaders
May 7, 2024
With the deeper reach--both across the world and into our lives--many companies and their products have, the leaders of these organizations are taking on increasingly complex responsibilites. In fact, according to globally ranked #1 Executive Coach Navid Nazemian, organizations are up to 35x more complex than they were 15 years ago. And perhaps even more concerning, when it comes to maintaining strong leadership, the cost of a failed CEO transition can be as much as 30x that of the executive's annual salary. This week, Navid joins the show to share his Double Diamond framework for maximizing the chances of success during an executive transition.
Join Navid Nazemian, author of Mastering Executive Transitions, as he discusses:
-What kind of timeframes executive transitions generally require to succeed
-What often occupies the minds of new executives, and where their focus should be directed instead
-The various categories of personal and organizational challenges a new executive might face.
-The scope of the many risks of a failed executive transition, including financial, reputational, and time
