Personal inventory of skills
The tremendous talent pool that exists within the ranks of senior executives in transition should not go to waste. Over qualification and age are enemies for those who are relying on an ecomomic turnaround to introduce them back into mainstream corporate America. A good skill set and experience can be valuable if you see the crisis as opportunity.
Insights and Strategies for Senior Executives in Transition
What I see as a roadblock for most senior executives is that they confuse skills and experience with contributions and impact. For example, by the time a prospective candidate is a CFO, he already has specific skill sets by virtue of climbing the ranks and securing that role. What is critically important to a company in hiring the "right" candidate from the 3 or so who possess similar skills and experience is that candidate's ability to positively impact the organization. Past performance (measurable impact) is indicative of future ability to contribute.
Age becomes an issue when the candidate's value proposition is buried underneath skills and experience.
