Continuing to invest in capabilities to support client success with Executive Onboarding and Transition Acceleration services, PrimeGenesis announces the addition of John Hall to the team. “Business leaders are increasingly mandated to deliver better results faster through critical transitions despite challenges in external and internal environments across public, independent and private equity organizations. As a result, executive failure rates remain high, leading to strong ongoing demand for our services including Executive Onboarding (support for leader entering a new role), Team Onboarding (support for leaders and teams post M&A integration), and Accelerations & Restarts (support to pivot at a point of inflection). We are fortunate to welcome John to our team; he brings deep experience as a business leader who has delivered results through critical business transitions and helped numerous other leaders do the same,” said John Lawler, Managing Partner, PrimeGenesis.
John Hall is a proven leadership expert with 30+ years of strategic, operational, and organizational leadership experience in a wide range of environments. As a 2-time Navy SEAL Commander, John applied force-multiplying techniques to help teams deliver superior results. As President and CEO of Voxtec International, and previously as COO as well as interim CFO and CRO at Platform Science, John led teams to strong performance during various stages of high growth. John helps leaders and teams simplify complex situations, commit to high-participation continuous improvement and connect strategic goals to operational improvements and financial performance.
“I am committed to helping business leaders build thriving organizations with purpose-driven cultures focused on results. Nowhere is the need for support more acute than when a leader is entering a new role, where they need to not only assimilate through learning and stakeholder development, but also quickly gain team alignment and commitment on new directions and approaches through focused collaboration and communication. PrimeGenesis has built a platform and process for enabling leader and team success through these kinds of transitions; it is a thrill to be part of the team,” John said.
PrimeGenesis was founded in 2003 on the core belief that the first 100 days of a transition is a crucible of leadership and that proactive planning makes all the difference between success and failure. Accelerating assimilation and generating team alignment, momentum and results during the first 100 days dramatically increases leaders’ and teams’ chances for success in the short and long term. Over the course of hundreds of engagements around the world, PrimeGenesis has helped reduce new leader failure (per Heidrick, 40% of new leaders fail in the first 18 months) to less than 10% for our clients, while helping leaders and teams get done in 100 days what normally takes 6-12 months, while building lasting success for the leader and the team.
