In today’s dynamic global marketplace, the selection of executive leadership is critical. For global corporations, choosing the right executive to lead or join the senior team of a local operation is one of the most critical decisions headquarters can make. Whether the strategy involves localizing a key position and the talent isn’t available internally, or bringing in external expertise, the stakes are very high.
