Succession Planning Built for the Decisions Boards Can't Postpone

Succession is rarely urgent until it is. We support Nomination Committees in preparing board composition, CEO succession and director pipeline with the rigour the moment demands.

Succession planning is routinely discussed and rarely resolved. Most Nomination Committees plan adequately for the orderly transition and inadequately for the sudden one.

When the moment arrives unplanned, the board that responds is the board that had done the work.

How it works

Get in touch

Scoping conversation and fixed-fee proposal

We deliver the engagement with a senior practitioner lead

Flexible Support

Engagements range from a single emergency succession review to ongoing Nomination Committee support through a multi-year refresh programme.

Our model is different

Independent Nomination Committee counsel, not an executive search firm. Free from the conflicts that come with placing the candidates.

Every engagement is delivered at a fixed project fee. Scope and fee are set at the outset. Neither drifts during delivery.
