The leadership read

A change at the top rarely stays at the top. Two Circles's move reshapes the layer beneath it in the sector as a new leader sets priorities and the team re-forms. Watch the first two or three appointments that follow; they signal direction more reliably than any statement.

Market context: Against a Talent Market Index of 122.7 (Hot) (up 17.8 month-on-month), Asia is at rising (+8.2pts) on signal share.

Two Circles: 1 signal in the last 90 days.
