				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">Why do companies struggle with succession management?</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Securing a smooth succession for senior management and board-level roles is essential for the next stage in your company’s future.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Shareholders, regulators and analysts expect succession management to be effectively planned and implemented. In reality, this rarely happens without partnering with an expert dedicated to managing this change.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">There are commonalities that run through most organisations which will cause a company to falter in succession planning.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Strategic direction, more precisely, a lack of agreement on strategic direction and how and what matrix talent are evaluated, both are essential to drive the business strategy.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Because succession decisions are critical in sustaining business performance and success, Charles Francis Cooper’s attention to detail and efficient processes will sustain stability and performance through leadership transition which is essential for your future business success.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">When the time comes to implement a succession plan, we bring the essential experience needed to reduce risk and ensure a smooth transition.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">While the first days, weeks and months of any new employee are important, for an executive appointment they are critical.</p>
