Future-proofing Succession: Insights from Top Talent Leaders
Leadership succession is no longer a long-term HR initiative - it’s a strategic business imperative.
Many succession strategies remain outdated or misaligned with what the business needs to lead the company into the future, and many companies are falling behind:
- 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
Why now?
Geopolitical shocks. Economic volatility. AI reshaping entire industries.
In this context, succession can’t rely on who “seems ready.” The leaders who got us here may not be the ones who take us forward—and the gap between knowing this and acting on it is growing.
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. As part of our broader research into the future of succession, we’ll share early insights from in-depth interviews across industries and regions—plus what today’s top leaders are doing differently.
We’ll unpack what actions are driving real results – from rethinking outdated models to embedding ownership in the business – and share early insights from the trends and challenges emerging through this research to spark conversation.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, discover how top organizations are
- Redefining what future-ready leadership looks like
- Aligning succession efforts with evolving business strategy
- Increasing diversity and representation in leadership pipelines
- Assessing readiness beyond past performance
- Building business ownership and momentum behind lasting succession efforts
Attendees will receive exclusive early access to the full research report when it’s released this summer.
Don’t miss this opportunity to benchmark your succession strategy – and help shape the conversations.
Who should attend
Heads of Talent, Talent Management, Leadership Development, and senior HR leaders looking to rethink, refresh, or re-energize their approach to succession.
