Map the governance gaps in your whole executive bench.
The same engine that credentialed your CEO assesses your C-suite, n-1, and n-2 against the roles they're being lined up for. You see succession risk before it becomes a crisis. They get a personal roadmap to close the gap.
Governance heat map — Q2 2026.
Twelve verified leaders across C-suite, n-1, and n-2. Each cell shows how that leader scores against the six governance pillars. Risk column is the agent's read on succession exposure.
Three things stand out across this team. First, your CSO (Heinrich Voss) is the only senior carrier of scientific governance literacy and you have no n-1 successor scoring above 70 on Risk — this is your single largest succession exposure and I've flagged it as high risk. Second, your n-2 cohort scores 14 points below your C-suite on Stakeholder Engagement, indicating a systemic gap in regulator and investor exposure at the director level. Third, you have a hidden strength: Anya Petrov (VP Regulatory Affairs, 88 Risk) is a strong candidate for an external Audit Committee NED placement — you should use this to deepen her board literacy before someone else hires her. Heat map benchmark is calibrated against 412 verified Animal Health executives.
