Every organization will experience leadership transition.
Few execute it well.

Succession plans often assume stability - leaders who stay, timelines that cooperate, and knowledge that transfers naturally. In reality, transitions happen under pressure, uncertainty, and incomplete information.

Through our Facilitated Executive Transition™ approach, Janus ETP™ helps boards and ownership groups execute thorough and complete leadership transition in real time by integrating the disciplines of executive coaching and institutional knowledge management.

… and we do it for a fraction of what it would cost to overlap chief executives or hire an interim.

Janus ETP™ is designed for the stakeholders responsible for organizational continuity:

• Boards of directors
• Investors and ownership groups
• governance committees
• founders preparing for succession

While executive coaching is part of the work, the engagement is structured to protect the organization, as well as develop the individual leader.

What Makes Janus Different

Most transition support falls into two categories:

• Succession planning - theoretical preparation
• Interim leadership - temporary stabilization

Janus focuses on the moment neither addresses well: the disciplined execution of leadership transfer.

We support both planned succession and disruptive leadership change through two engagement models.

Our Engagement Models

Leadership Relay™

Structured support for planned executive succession.

We help outgoing and incoming leaders transfer authority, relationships, and institutional knowledge with discipline and clarity.

Leadership Reset™

Structured support for disruptive leadership change.

When leadership failure or sudden departure creates instability, we help boards stabilize authority, preserve critical knowledge, and reset the organization’s leadership context.

Executive transition is inevitable.
Successful transition is not.
