Objective:

The organisation had recently been acquired by an overseas entity.

The local CEO wanted to work with a mentor to explore effective ways to work with his offshore CEO and to develop relationships with- and influence- his peers and head office colleagues. He also wanted to seek counsel on local leadership issues, including dealing with external stakeholders and market-driven issues.

Solution:

We developed a 12-month executive mentoring program, where the local CEO was matched with a highly experienced financial services CEO turned mentor, who had personally experienced almost identical issues and challenges to those being faced by the local CEO.

Outcome:

A highly successful mentoring program which has resulted in the local CEO being given additional responsibilities as a valued member of the new international organisation.
