Senior executives new to their roles often don't achieve their desired impact and run the risk of failing to make it past the critical first 18 months.

HR Leaders can be a focal point in driving a process to minimize the risk, mitigate the disruption and maximize the positive impact of senior leader transitions. Acquire a specific methodology that taps the tacit knowledge of key stakeholders around the role to enable the new leader to quickly gain deep understanding of the business and organizational situation at hand and rapidly reinforce or re-direct as needed.

Learn how to accelerate recognition of strategic business opportunities and challenges, organizational capabilities and gaps, key external and internal stakeholders, relationships and networks (social capital) and the leadership behaviors required to achieve results in the particular culture.
