Business Exposure

The aim of Business Exposure is to identify the level of exposure created in companies that come to Executives Online because a senior director has unexpectedly left the company, or their traditional recruitment method is failing and they urgently need to plug the gap.

This research report draws on 102 surveys among HR managers and line managers responsible for hiring executive roles. We look at how common the problem is. We explore the roles which are the most vulnerable, and those which are toughest to fill. We consider the problems companies face when they can’t solve a senior recruitment problem, the damage that results, and the steps companies might take to minimise it.
