Executive Onboarding Coaching
The first 90 days determine the next 3 years.
Despite investing heavily in senior hiring—often costing over twice an executive’s salary—50% of new leaders leave within 18 months. These failures stem not from a lack of skill, but from unstructured onboarding based on the flawed assumption that C-suite leaders should “just figure it out.” The cost of a bad hire is devastating, reaching 5–25x their salary in lost productivity, severance and team disruption.
Our specialized executive onboarding services support new VPs, SVP and C-suite leaders during their critical first 90–120 days—focusing on culture, stakeholder alignment and role clarity to prevent early derailment and protect your investment.
Key Focus Areas
- Stakeholder Mapping: Identifying key influencers, allies and decision-makers across the company.
- Cultural Integration: Decoding unwritten rules, communication norms and organizational politics.
- Relationship Alignment: Build peer relationships, executive team alignment and board rapport. A new executive without allies at the leadership table is on borrowed time.
- Early Wins Strategy: Clarifying short-term wins and long-term mandates with the board or manager. Building a realistic, high-impact 30-60-90 day execution plan.
