Boards Looking for ‘Soft Skills’ in New Crop of CEOs

On Jan. 1, several of the nation’s biggest companies — including Morgan Stanley, Kraft Heinz, Sherwin Williams and Costco — welcomed new CEOs. In all, new chiefs took over at a dozen S&P 500 companies on New Year’s Day, according to data from public company intelligence provider MyLogIQ.

A handful of new CEOs will start at other companies later this month, followed by a few more in February and March. By the end of the first quarter, at least 19 S&P 500 companies will have new CEOs in place, MyLogIQ says.
