Future-proofing Succession: Insights from Top Talent Leaders
Leadership succession is no longer a long-term HR initiative - it’s a strategic business imperative.
In an era of geopolitical shocks, economic volatility, and AI-driven transformation, organizations are rethinking what great leadership truly looks like. The leaders who got us here may not be the ones who take us forward – and the gap between knowing that and successfully building that bridge it is growing.
Yet many succession strategies remain outdated, overly narrow, or misaligned with what the business needs to lead the company into the future.
- Only 14% of companies believe they have a strong leadership bench
- Up to 70% of executive hires – internal or external – fail within just 18 months
How are leading companies evolving their succession strategies to stay future-ready?
Join BTS for a 60-minute virtual panel with global senior Talent leaders from Coca-Cola, Harbour and IBM . This session is part of our broader research into the evolving landscape of succession and what today’s top talent leaders are doing differently, built on in-depth interviews with senior HR and Talent leaders across industries and regions.
We’ll unpack what actions are driving real results – from rethinking outdated models to embedding ownership in the business – and share early insights from the trends and challenges emerging through this research to spark conversation.
In this session, you’ll explore
- What’s changing in how organizations think about future leadership
- How succession efforts are being shaped by evolving business strategy
- Approaches to increasing diversity and representation in leadership pipelines
- How leading companies are assessing readiness – beyond performance
- How to build momentum buy-in from the business behind succession efforts that last
