What really matters when it comes to CEO and executive succession?

What role should CHROs play in executive succession?

My guests on this episode are Kevin Cox, Founder and President of LKC Advisory and Anthony Nyberg, Director, Center for Executive Succession at University of South Carolina.

During our conversation Kevin, Anthony, and I discuss:

  • Why culture is owned by the CEO, not the CHRO
  • What is the one common mistake that Boards make during the executive succession process and how to fix it.
  • The most important role that CHROs can play in executive succession process.
  • Why CFOs are more likely to be promoted internally than CHROs.
  • Why character, courage, and business acumen are three of the most important traits of successful CHROS
