Problem
The Norman Broadbent Group were tasked by the Board of a Bank to support them in replacing their CEO. Whilst the performance of the Bank had been acceptable for number of years, the Board wanted to see greater growth. As it had been rudderless for a period of time, they needed fresh leadership. Although the Bank were looking for a permanent successor, such were the regulatory problems, they decided to appoint an Interim CEO whilst the Search was underway. This situation was heavily NDA’d, and the risk to the business was likely to be significant were details to leak into the market.
Solution
After taking an extensive brief, we set to work discretely contacting our Interim CEO network. As this role was as much about tackling immediate cultural as well as banking/regulatory challenges, we had to be exceptionally diligent in ensuring we achieved the right ‘fit’.
