What leadership advisory work does AVID EXEC do beyond search?
AVID EXEC advises boards and executive teams on structure, succession, compensation, terminations and exits — the conversations boards and executive teams find hardest. The work is confidential, judgement-led, and usually happens before or instead of a search.
Structure, terminations and exits, and the conversations boards and executive teams find hardest.
The conversations boards and executive teams find hardest
A vacancy is often the symptom, not the problem. Before a search is the right answer, someone has to say plainly whether the role is designed correctly, whether the incumbent can be developed, and what the organization is actually asking a new leader to fix.
That conversation is easier with someone who has no stake in selling a search.
Where advisory is used
Organizational structure and role design. Succession planning and bench assessment. Compensation benchmarking against the Alberta market. Terminations, exits and the sequencing around them. Risk management on sensitive leadership changes.
Disciplined. Discreet. Decisive.
Advisory work is the most confidential thing we do. We hold it that way not only because standards and law require it, but because it is not our story to share.
- Structure and role design reviews
- Succession planning and bench assessment
- Compensation benchmarking
- Termination and exit sequencing
