Gated Talent

For an executive embarking on the search for a new role – or one simply wishing to stay “on the radar” of top recruiters – an understanding of how retained search works is vital. Positioning yourself to catch the attention of recruiters while “doing the day job” can be quite a challenge. In this session, Jason Starr, himself a Public Company Director, will explain what to expect as you go through a search, and will discuss steps that can be taken to maximize your chance of success at each stage.

Here’s a statistic most boards underestimate: 40% of executive transitions fail within the first 18 months, and new executives typically need 6+ months to reach break-even productivity. That’s a long, expensive window of exposure — for the executive and the organization.

AI and boards have raised the stakes. The pace is faster, the scrutiny is higher, and the cost of a slow start now compounds quickly. The good news: transition risk is predictable, and therefore manageable.

In this session, you’ll learn:

• The hidden reasons most transitions stall in the first 18 months — and the early-warning signs leaders miss
• A proven de-risking approach to reach break-even productivity faster
• How AI and digital transformation are changing what a strong start actually looks like
• The highest-leverage interventions to deploy
• How organizations can protect their investment in senior talent and accelerate value creation for shareholders
