Today's guest is Jim Citrin, a legend in the world of CEO search and succession. Jim is the leader of Spencer Stuart's CEO practice. Over the course of his career, he's interviewed over 14,000 candidates and worked with clients on more than 800 searches and succession assignments. Jim's gift is seeing the future—a future that candidates and companies don't always see—and then bringing them together to write that future.
Chris and Jim discuss:
How Jim helped Hubert Joly and Mark Thompson land their respective CEO roles at Best Buy and the New York TimesWhy delivering great results alone is no longer enough for CEOsHow to rewrite the narrative about the perfect CEO who has all the answersWhat the succession process looks like, and what boards are looking for in candidatesHow you can use storytelling and your vision of the future to earn trust with the board in the interview process
And much more!
