Executive Turnover Rises as Boards Push for Faster Growth

Corporate leadership is changing as boards place increasing pressure on executives to deliver measurable results.

Chief executives and other senior managers are facing demands for stronger growth, better efficiency and faster responses to changing markets.

Leadership changes can create uncertainty, but they can also give companies an opportunity to rethink their strategies.
