WHY EXECUTIVE LEADERS FAIL - AND WHAT THE DATA SAYS (Reserach Whitpaper_
Executive failure is far more common and far more costly than most organizations recognize. Research shows that roughly 30–50% of leaders fail to meet expectations within their first 18 months, at a financial cost that can reach 213% of the executive's annual salary. The root causes are almost never technical; they're behavioral and driven by gaps in coachability, emotional intelligence, and the ability to build relationships under pressure. The good news is that structured transition support and executive coaching dramatically reduce that risk, with ICF and PwC research showing a median return of 7 times the coaching investment, making prevention far cheaper than the failure it avoids.
