Heidrick & Struggles International asserts that robust succession planning must become a daily leadership practice, not a yearly checklist item.
The statement accompanies expert insights shared by Marie-Hélène De Coster in conversation with Jean-Luc Fleurial of UCB, emphasizing how leadership development strategies are evolving to meet modern organizational challenges. The discussion spotlights the increasing expectation that leaders proactively integrate succession planning into their regular routines, signaling a shift in how companies prepare for future talent needs.

The firm also launched high-stakes simulations with Atomic Machines to assess executive strengths and weaknesses. These initiatives reflect the firm’s ongoing focus on proactive leadership development.
