One of the costliest problems any organization can face is a failed executivetransition. When someone is hired who doesnt fulfill the expectations of the board or owner who selected them, the organization not only loses the benefitsthat the executive was expected to bring in while paying a huge financial price in the process, but the turnover can seriously affect the companys stock and the very fiber of its organization for years to come. The excessively high rate of executive failurenot just in the U.S. but globallyhas become a significant issue in the business community, and it is clear the old hiring model is broken. In response, Nat Stoddard has developed a revolutionary process for stemming the rising tide of executive turnover. The Right Leader describes the groundbreaking new Match-Fit model that is helping corporate boards everywhere reduce the risks and the costs of leadership failure by purposefully and fully considering the cultural dynamics at play before extending an offer to a new executive. Because Stoddard works closely with the boards and senior executivesof some of Americas most prestigious corporations, his anecdotal evidence is as riveting as the data that supports his approach. The Right Leader is a unique combination of the thoughtful and the entertaining, explaining and challenging the reasons for some of the most expensive and newsworthy executive terminations in recent years.
