The leadership read
Restructuring reshapes the leadership profile as much as the cost base. For Castellum in the sector, it shifts demand toward transformation and turnaround leaders who hold delivery steady while the organisation changes shape. Across EMEA, watch where Castellum still invests in leadership; that is the part it means to keep.
Market context: This lands while the Talent Market Index reads 122.7 (Hot) — up 17.8 versus the prior month — and EMEA signal share is easing (-17.7pts).
