Heidrick & Struggles International has revealed that only half of CEOs and directors are confident in their executive talent strategies. This finding highlights the growing concern within businesses regarding effective leadership planning.
Chief People Officers (CPOs) are increasingly taking strategic initiatives to enhance board relationships and improve leadership planning.
