Member Thought Leadership
When hiring for a leadership role, companies often make the mistake of focusing on hiring the best executive rather than the right executive. While the distinction may seem subtle, it can mean the difference between long-term success and an expensive mis-hire.
The best executive is often seen as the candidate with the most impressive resume – on the other hand, the right executive is someone who not only possesses the necessary skills and experience but also fits seamlessly into the organization’s culture and resources and understands its challenges and can effectively lead within its unique structure.
The right leader is aligned with the company’s long-term vision, able to inspire teams, and adapt to its evolving needs.
