Succession Planning

Pure Leadership understands what it takes to drive succession planning at the top.

Even leaders in place who are great today may not be the best to take the organization to the next level in the future. We work with boards to help achieve alignment on the organization’s needs for the future first. We align these needs with the leadership characteristics critical for success. It is against this profile that we then further assist boards in identifying the best successor.

Our partnership doesn’t end here though. Once a successor has been identified- whether internal or external candidate- the work is not complete. There is much to accomplish with internal candidates not chosen in order to maintain engagement and renew their energy and commitment. Pure Leadership stays with you throughout the process to ensure the transition is smooth for all leaders, to mitigate risk of executive turnover and thus ensure optimal business performance throughout the duration of the change process.  

Our services include:

  • Planning for senior leader, CEO and Board Succession
  • Objectively evaluating executive and CEO candidates
  • Coaching for transition, alignment and continued engagement of all candidates
