The Next CEO: Board and CEO Perspectives for Successful CEO Succession
Autor Thomas Keil, Marianna Zangrilloen Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 mai 2021
Every year, companies spend billions of dollars in board time and headhunter fees on CEO searches. In fact, the selection of the next CEO is the single most important task of the board of directors. Yet, despite the huge amount of time, money, and attention given to the task, many CEO changes fail, with disastrous consequences for all concerned.
With so much at stake, it is natural to ask what companies and their boards can do to increase the odds of success. Illustrated with an abundance of real-life examples from interviews with CEOs, C-suite members, members of the boards, and headhunters supporting CEO searches, The Next CEO explains how boards can improve the odds of success with CEO succession by identifying clear CEO mandates and associated CEO profiles and by selecting CEOs that are fi t for purpose. It further explains how the CEOs of leading corporations effectively take charge and create results, providing a roadmap for incoming CEOs. These ideas are brought to life with case studies and interviews with well-known corporations such as ABB, Alibaba, Freudenberg, GE, Google, HNA, HP, Microsoft, Nestle, Nike, Nokia, Novartis, Roche, Sony, Tata, and Zurich Insurance.
The book is invaluable practical reading for board members of medium-to-large-size fi rms involved with CEO succession, and for those preparing for their fi rst CEO position. It is also relevant to headhunters who are involved in the process of CEO succession as a working tool for them and their clients. In addition, the book will be relevant to courses on corporate governance and strategic transformation at the executive and MBA levels.

"The Next CEO is an outstanding book. It provides great insights into the challenges of leading a company and how to select the right leader. The many practical examples from different company situations and the quotes from industry leaders make it a brilliant book which is fun to read."
Jan Jenisch, CEO, LafargeHolcim
"Appointing the CEO and thereafter supporting them to be successful all the way to the exit are the most critical tasks of the Board. This book is full of good practical experiences and real-life views of relevant colleagues from many companies and situations. Absolutely worth reading for newly appointed CEOs and all Board members, Chairs in particular! I can think of many situations as the Chair of a Board or CEO when the learnings from this book would have made me think twice or act differently."
Jorma Eloranta, Chair of Board of Directors, Stora Enso

The insights provided in this excellent book give the reader a good understanding of what "right" means, depending on the board’s vision of upcoming challenges.
