If hiring the CEO is the number one job of the board, then succession planning is a close second. The caliber of an organization’s CEO succession planning and recruitment impacts shareholder relations, confidence and value. It also impacts employees, clients, culture and organizational performance. With many CEO’s making a quick exit, it is more important then ever to have a plan in place.

Please join us for a lively discussion about CEO succession. We will hear from esteemed directors Steve Cooper (TrueBlue) Mark Finkelstein (Columbia Banking) and Colleen Birdnow Brown (American Apparel) about their recent experiences with planned and unplanned CEO succession. They will be joined by Hypatia Kingsley of Spencer Stuart, who will share key research and insights on the topic.

This event is sponsored by the TrueBlue Board of Directors, winners of the NACD NXT and Seattle Magazine’s Executive Excellence awards for outstanding leadership in governance and diversity.

Dinner will be held at Aerlum and space is limited. Please RSVP today.
