Why do you need Executive Springboard?
Because half of senior executive hires fail within 18 months.

Global search firm Heidrick & Struggles conducted a study of over 20,000 placements and found that 40% failed within 18 months. Other sources set the risk of failure even higher than the Heidrick study, up to a 60% failure rate.
There are similar chances of leaders flaming out in other situations: internal promotions to senior roles, business unit "lane changes," reorganizations, relocations, repatriations or the integration of acquisitions. We work to integrate leaders into all these cases. Companies report that only 11% of these failures are due to execs lacking the requisite skills to do the job. Most often, leaders are derailed by people issues. With Executive Springboard, you can reduce the risk of failure. |
