December 10, 2025

LEADERSHIP renewal has become one of the defining governance issues of this decade.

In a climate defined by geopolitical volatility, digital disruption, and heightened stakeholder scrutiny, there is growing recognition that leaders who got companies to this point may not be the leaders who will take them forward into an uncertain future.

The pace and unpredictability of today’s operating environment demand leadership teams that can adapt and refresh when required — boards can no longer rely solely on legacy leadership capability to steer through volatility. In response, boards are reassessing longstanding leadership structures and asking tougher questions about whether their organisations are properly equipped for the complexities of the next ten years.
