...by a public boardroom debacle at HSBC. Incumbent Chairman, Stephen Green, had announced his pre-mature departure from HSBC ahead of schedule, putting HSBC’s succession plan into the spotlight. An unforeseen and public power struggle ensued, with speculation as to whether incumbent CEO Michael Geoghegan or one of several other possible candidates would get the top job. The chaotic succession process undermined HSBC’s stellar reputation for smooth management succession, and damaged the credibility of the board. The objective of this case is to allow a discussion of issues such as the importance of board and senior management succession planning and what it entails, the difference between a Chairman’s and CEO’s roles, attributes of a good Chairman, and whether former senior executives should become board chairmen. HSBC: A Model of Smooth Succession HSBC has a long history of smooth board and senior management succession underpinned by clear succession plans. Regular review of these plans by independent non-executive directors also serves to strengthen its robustness. This is the abridged version of a case prepared by Apple Goh, Chidambara Thanu, Mabel Koh, Lew Karxieu, Oh Kai Li and Song Huizhen under the supervision of Professor Mak Yuen Teen and Dr Vincent Chen Yu- Shen. The case was developed from published sources solely for class discussion and is not intended to serve as illustrations of effective or ineffective management or management. The interpretations and perspectives...
