This issue of Consumer Markets Management Review, a regular publication of the Spencer Stuart Consumer Goods & Services Practice, includes two articles that touch on aspects of our increasingly global world. The article "Inside Asia Pacific" talks about developments in China, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore and India. Another article explores "The changing role of the country manager in CPG multinationals." Governance is another important theme for this newsletter. "Navigating the Barriers to CEO Succession" looks at the challenges to CEO succession planning and how to overcome them. We also summarize our most recent Retail and Apparel Board Index, which examines the board composition and practices of the leading retail and apparel companies in the United States.
