DDI Executive Services

Executive roles are complex.
Working with us is not.
Ambiguity is reality in executive and C-suite roles. They are under tremendous pressure
to perform, with little guidance on how to do it.
At DDI, our job is to help you find clarity amid ambiguity and erase your doubt about
executive performance.
We know that great performance happens when things get simpler, and that’s how webuild our solutions.
We do that in two ways. First, we use science to ensure you put the right people inspecific roles, especially those that are high-risk. Second, our people stand by yourexecutive leaders to help them succeed, both as individuals and as a team.
In short, we offer simple solutions for complex situations.

From High-Potential Executives to Your C-Suite
In many ways, becoming an executive is like starting over again as a leader. These intense roles
push leaders in ways they have never experienced before. And while the mistakes that executives
make are often common and understandable, they can have a devastating impact, both on thebusiness and individual.
That’s why we tailor our services to help you select and prepare executives for success at every
level, both as individuals and as teams.
At the top of the house, we offer specialized services to help you select and develop the bestleaders for CEO and C-suite roles. We also help develop a strong bench of potential successors
who are ready to step into key executive roles.
And at the foundation of your executive strategy, we work with your vice presidents, generalmanagers, directors, and other early executives to develop the skills to be exceptional leaders
and avoid common pitfalls as they grow into more strategic players.
