We ensure your top roles are never left exposed by empty seats or weak successors.
We build succession as a system - all critical roles covered, successors tested, and decisions made with rigor - designed to protect business continuity, growth, and reputation.

Signs of high risk include: a single candidate for critical roles; decisions reduced to personalities/loyalties, not strategic capability; critical seats left vacant or filled by interims; and rising leaders who falter after rapid promotion.
We design succession risk architecture - systems, decision-making rules and criteria, and governance - to ensure that no critical role is left vacant or mis-filled at your business. Successors are tested, decisions are validated, and continuity is secured.
We elevate conventional succession planning from names on a page advanced by interview/résumé strength or placement bias. Our methods stress-test succession plans and successors against the real pressures of strategy, risk, and the stakeholder landscape. We surface and quantify risk before it undermines continuity, and confirm strength where it matters most.
Independent of recruiter incentives or internal dynamics, we deliver decision-grade clarity that CEOs, CHROs, and their teams can trust.
Independent validation of finalists for senior appointments, with decision-grade ranking based on strategic inflection point, stakeholder landscape, and hidden risk factors.
Succession plans tested against strategy, risk, and stakeholder realities, and which quantify vulnerabilities and confirm leadership strength against long-range ambitions.
Our succession system reduces exposure and turns it into enterprise advantage, advancing the right leaders with timing, clarity, and board trust.
Leadership Continuity Secured

Stakeholder Alignment Strengthened
Boards and sponsors align early and stand behind decisions that hold - under scrutiny, transition pressure, or market exposure.
Enterprise Risk Contained
Leadership vulnerabilities are surfaced and addressed before they fracture strategic control or stall transition momentum.
