In our latest report, developed in partnership with Milltown Partners, we explore how today’s leaders are navigating an unprecedented convergence of political, social, and technological pressures. The report focuses on the critical role that chiefs of staff play in managing this complexity.
Drawing on insights from over 250 global chiefs of staff, the report examines the widening gap between what organisations need from their leaders and the communication capabilities those leaders currently possess.
As scrutiny intensifies and expectations rise, chiefs of staff are increasingly stepping in as strategic advisers. They guide leaders on communication, reputation, and internal alignment. The report shows how chiefs of staff are helping leaders engage diverse stakeholders, manage reputational risk, and provide clarity during periods of transformation. Communication is positioned not as a soft skill, but as a foundational element of effective leadership.
In our most recent report, we delve into the evolving chief of staff role, highlighting their unique position as “The Spacemaker” who fosters innovation, resilience, and transformation by creating space for critical thinking and strategic conversations.
