Leadership Due Diligence is essential during mergers, acquisitions, and when adopting major strategic shifts to ensure the executive team is equipped for future success.
CEOs, boards, and investors rely on leadership assessment to evaluate C-Suite readiness, mitigate risk, and identify future-fit leaders who can deliver against evolving mandates.
Odgers market and leadership advisers:
- Engage with the decision makers to define the ‘mandate’ with clear outcomes and an understanding of the elevation in performance required from the C-Suite team and critical roles.
- In ‘Pre-deal’ situations undertake ‘soft-referencing’ confidentially where we have strong market networks to highlight the experience Fit to the mandate.
- Deliver our LeaderFit Executive assessments in the ‘Pre-Implementation’ stage for the mandate to answer the critical questions with advice for the C-Suite team and individuals:
- Who is Fit-for-the-Future with potential - so retain and advance to mitigate retention risks.
- Who is Fit-for-the Future - so retain with support for the duration of the mandate.
- Who is not Fit-for-the Future - so release.
Odgers also offers LeaderFit Impact surveys to keep key decision makers apprised of retained executives progress and/or individual or team coaching to accelerate delivery of the outcomes required in the ‘mandate’.
