CEO departures at U.S. companies hit a record this year

 

 

• CEO exits at U.S. public companies hit a record in 2024 as they faced competitive and strategic challenges.
• Turnover included chief executives at U.S. companies that have long dominated in their industries — like Boeing, Nike and Starbucks.
• Consumer-focused companies, which are more susceptible to changing tastes and trends, generally have higher turnover than industries like oil and gas or utilities, which tend to have internal and longer-tenured CEOs.
