Your
skills and leadership ability move with you.
When you sit down at your
handsome polished desk in the C–suite and take in the view from the top
floor, you are likely to feel successful, acknowledged and elated. And
you should be — you know you didn’t get a corporate pinnacle without merit.
However, that position at the upper level is not immune to change. In
today’s difficult economy, the door that opened for you to walk into the
C–suite might also be the way you exit involuntarily. That desk and that
view you worked for years to attain might lose some of its luster as you
check off the goals you wanted to achieve and groom a successor.
No matter how difficult the path might be, whether you choose to leave or
to face the pain that comes when you're dismissed, your skills and
leadership ability move with you. In this month’s newsletter, you'll find
solid information and guidelines to life beyond your most recent C–suite.

didn’t have a CEO in mind when he wrote, "Make a new plan, Stan
Hop on the bus, Gus," but his "Fifty Ways to

CEO that it's time to go. You’re tired to the bone, you’ve accomplished
your organizational goals and you’re not having fun anymore. When you
can see all those in the mirror, it may be time to ask yourself, "What now?"

Who is Your
Replacement?
|
|
 When you’re
confident that you’re contributing to your company’s success and your
boss says, "Hey,
who do you want to replace you?" you may
immediately think the worst. But what he/she is saying is, "I want
to promote you. Have you groomed a successor?"
If you haven’t, it’s likely your promotion will be delayed — or taken
off the table. What is your legacy?
