HR Leaders: Measure what matters. The business will grow, as will your value to it. #Growth #business #valuecreation #talenttovalue Bill Allen

The pace of business change has never been this brisk. An annual survey by Accenture found it’s risen 183% since 2019 and 33% since 2023. Today’s leaders know they must grow and are seeking proven tools to do it. With our proven Talent to Value™ approach, we provide C-suite leaders with the new tools and approach that allow them to better integrate M&A, transform existing operations and put the right leaders in place to win. #talenttovalue #growth #change #strategy

Staggering Statistic Alert: An annual survey conducted since 1997 found that only 14% of M&A transactions are significantly successful against three measures – strategic, operational and financial.  Let’s boost that success rate together.

  At CEO.works, we don’t craft business strategies—our clients already know their business inside out. So, what do we do? Our proprietary Talent to Value™ playbook gives CEOs and their teams the tools to quickly assemble talent and organization where it matters. Often talent strategy focuses on changing people at the top and/or building new teams and capabilities – approaches that take too long in an ever-changing landscape. Our expert team combines real in-house experience transforming businesses with a proven method that delivers results without disrupting the entire organization. Here's how we work:  ⏺️ Simplify strategy: Boil down core elements to single page. These are your Value Hot Spots. ⏺️ Identify key actions and people: Identify the 15-20 roles that deliver 80% of the value. That’s The List. ⏺️ Talent assessment: Help answer the question “Are we talented enough?” to deliver the value. Ensure people and organization are set up to deliver value.  ⏺️ Detail the work: Outline specific tasks, or Jobs to be Done, and assess if each role is set up for success.  ⏺️ Deliver fast: Build the shortest path to value. What are the fewest actions and people needed to deliver the most value in the least time?  Business transformations are tough. That’s why 3 out of 4 fall short of their goals. With Talent to Value™, C-suite leaders can enhance success by thinking big, starting small, and moving quickly. Are you talented enough where it matters? #TalentNotEnough #Transformation #Leadership #talenttovalue

With CEO tenures dropping by 20% in the last decade, understanding why CEOs fail is crucial for ensuring your organization's success. ⏺ Median CEO tenure in the S&P 500 has dropped from 6 years to 4.8 years. ⏺ 15% of outgoing CEOs in 2024 lasted less than two years, up from 9.6% in 2019. 👉 Read our Co Founder, Sumeet Salwan’s first article as a member of the Forbes Business Council to understand the three biggest pitfalls and how to succeed by avoiding them. 

Staggering Statistic: Almost half of 4,700 CEOs surveyed say their businesses won’t survive.  Combine that with decades of research that tells us 3 out of 4 transformations fail, and it's clear we need a new approach – fast. Change is hard, yet necessary to survive and thrive. At CEO.works, our proprietary approach guides clients to set ambitious goals, identify the shortest path to the most value creation and build on each success.
