This book is a comprehensive guide that explores the most pressing issues surrounding CEO succession planning and execution – one of the most critical decisions a company will ever face.

The book delivers a clear framework to help boards, senior executives, and other stakeholders navigate every step of the CEO succession process – from identifying the right timing to evaluating candidates, preparing for unexpected departures, and ensuring smooth transitions.
