The Leadership Challenge

Social, legislative and regulatory forces have caused the corporate world to recognize bias and commit to diversity hiring at the Executive-Suite and in the Boardroom. These commitments are not being met and pressure is mounting.

Companies are recognizing that diversity at the Executive-Suite and Board level is an asset and has been proven to be connected to more competitive companies.

The War on Talent is here and there is not a sufficient pipeline of experienced, and diverse people to meet the demand.

At the Executive-Suite and Board level, companies focus on hiring experienced prospects and there is not a sufficient pipeline of experienced, diverse prospects to meet demand.

(Axios, Mckinsey & Co., 2021)

Diversity at the Executive - Suite and Board level are not meeting recently targeted numbers.

(The Globe and Mail; Spencer Stuart, 2021)

Companies are not comfortable taking the risk of hiring prospects at the Executive-Suite or Board who are not proven experienced leaders in those positions.

There is not an unbiased, predictive, cost-efficient assessment solution to reveal Leadership Readiness of prospects who lack experience at the Executive-Suite and Board.

High Cost of Failure

Executive talent selection has a 50% failure rate and the cost of a failed executive hire is estimated at an average of $500K.

Profile

War for Talent

The world is transforming at a rapid pace, and companies are desperate for high performance, effective leaders. There is not a sufficient pipeline of experienced and diverse talent to meet the demand.

Profile

Bias

Current executive evaluations are mostly unstructured, subjective and based on past performance and are therefore inaccurate, biased and not predictive.

Profile

Lack of an Affordable and Scalable Solution

Current executive talent evaluation and selection tools are expensive and not scalable. There is not an unbiased, predictive, cost- efficient solution to identify Leadership Excellence.

Profile
