How Insider CEOs Succeed
內容大綱
CEOs who are hired from outside the company tend to get far more attention, not to mention support with the transition to their new role, than CEOs promoted from the inside do. Leaders who come from within the firm, it's assumed, already know the organization, its strategy, and its management, so they should adjust easily to their new roles. But in reality, they face hurdles that are just as big, albeit different, from the ones outsider CEOs face. In their research and consulting work, the authors have identified insiders' five key challenges: operating in the shadow of their own past; making early decisions that surprise and disappoint supporters; overseeing former peers; pacing change; and managing the outgoing CEO. In this article, they draw on interviews with dozens of internally promoted executives to provide advice for navigating each of those issues. The result is a primer for leaders who step into the top job from within; the management teams, boards, and HR and communication departments that want to offer support; and even leaders lower down in the hierarchy who are dealing with succession issues.
