About this simulation
Run the 24-month CEO succession arc as the sitting CEO of Helio Verde S.A. Author the slate, design the development plan, decide the external scan, and write the recommendation memo.

Anchor cases: Welch–Immelt, Iger–Chapek–Iger, Ballmer–Nadella, Lafley–McDonald–Lafley–Taylor.
