Скачать или смотреть The Economist: Why 66% of CEO Successions Fail (The Apple Case)

This briefing examines The Economist’s investigation into the high failure rates associated with executive succession following iconic leadership tenures. We evaluate the Succession Paradox and the institutional risks facing multi-trillion-dollar entities like Apple and Berkshire Hathaway as they navigate post-founder eras. By analyzing strategic drift and the necessity for 'New DNA' in corporate governance, we assess the viability of internal versus external leadership transitions.

We cover:

The Numbers: How Cook surged revenue to $416 billion.
The Trap: Why following a legend is the hardest job in business.
The Solution: Why the best time to plan a replacement was 15 years ago.
The Outsider Advantage: Why companies might need "New DNA" (like Satya Nadella at Microsoft) rather than a safe internal pick.
Are Apple and Berkshire Hathaway ready for the next chapter, or will they crumble under the weight of their own legacy?
