The leadership read
Consolidation shifts the leadership question from growth to integration. For Findex in the sector, the demand moves toward transformation and integration leaders who can merge teams, systems and cultures without losing momentum. Across Oceania, watch whether the integration is properly resourced; deals are won or lost the year after they close.
Market context: The wider read — a Talent Market Index of 102.6 (Warm), down 1.7 month-on-month — shows Oceania signal flow rising (+3pts).
