Our processes are simple yet rigorous, helping organizations to mitigate the following leadership risks:
- Capability: Risk of leaders who do not possess the capabilities to successfully assume critical leadership roles now, or in the future, due to development gaps.

- Vacancy: Risk of critical leadership roles being vacant.
