</span></h2> <p><span style="color: #ffffff;">Today it is clear, that securing effective leadership is one of the biggest challenges organisations face. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #ffffff;">Comprehensive and repeated research studies show conventional Executive Search, recruitment, development ideas, and methods are often unsuccessful. Despite the many excellent professionals working in the industry, 40-50% of leader appointments fail, and CEOs regularly complain that less than 10% of their leader development expenditure delivers business value.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #ffffff;">Even more worryingly, as the difficulty in selecting and developing leaders increases, success rates are deteriorating.</span></p> <h5><span style="color: #ffffff;"><a style="color: #ffffff;" href="/globalassets/lss-stories/outperform-article-series-compilation.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Read our article series focused on how leaders can ensure their organisations outperform.</em></a></span></h5> <h2><span style="color: #ffffff;">Our expert formula for success at work – MU Leader Selection Science<sup>®</sup></span></h2> <p><span style="color: #ffffff;">Our experts have a unique way of working.

Scientific researchers worked with organisations to investigate how their results were impacted by people. Guided by science, they discovered how to effectively increase business results by substantially increasing the accuracy of employee selection.
