Hiring an executive is a delicate moment. For the manager, it is a new career step, a moment in which they must make the most of the consolidated competencies and challenge themselves in new fields. For the company, this means embarking on an important decision, from which a positive contribution, or even a resolution, is expected in the quickest possible way. In this challenging dance of reciprocal expectations, being aware of one’s own self is as important as being conscious of the context in which one comes to operate. In-depth integration helps executives question certainties and consolidated behaviours, allowing them to become open to a new context and relations without bias. In doing so, we help companies to protect their people investments and ensure a positive and long-lasting integration.
