The Hidden Risk in Every Executive Hire

The offer is signed. The resume is gold. But integration is where even the most expensive hires fail.

After a five to seven-figure search, months of interviews, and board-level scrutiny, the first 90-day clock starts ticking. Yet, most onboarding programs stop at checklists and culture decks, leaving your new leader to navigate unspoken power dynamics, unclear expectations, culture misalignment, and high-pressure performance windows alone. That’s where early missteps turn into silent resistance, or full-blown flameouts.
