Chief People Officer Pathways report 2024
Following the success of our analysis into the most common pathway to the Chief People Officer role released last year, Eton Bridge Partners is delighted to continue to share the findings of research into over 7,500 Chief People Officer appointments.
This year we extended our reach to include global appointments between 2022 and 2023. We hope that the statistics, analysis and conclusions in this report are useful to our C-suite network, as well as to aspiring CPOs when considering their career planning decisions.
We believe there are two key audiences for whom the findings of this report will be of particular interest:
1/ Aspiring Chief People Officers
2/ Companies looking to hire a new Chief People Officer or develop a talent pipeline to the Chief People Officer position over the longer term
Eton Bridge Partners has collaborated with the leading global data company BoardEx, who specialise in relationship mapping and intelligence, to analyse some core data on the profile of Chief People Officers and their career pathway.
