Temporal Transition Analysis
Track how director career pathways have evolved over two distinct periods: 2019-2021 and 2022-2024. Identify emerging employer pipelines and changing sector transition patterns.
Data Coverage Limitation
This analysis covers a 5-year period (2019-2024) split into two 3-year segments. While longer timeframes (10+ years) would provide more robust trend analysis, the current window still captures meaningful shifts in director career dynamics.
Why 5 years? Our appointment date data is most reliable from 2019 onwards. As we accumulate more historical data, we'll extend this analysis to show decade-by-decade trends.

Key Insights
Growing Pipelines: Employers with positive growth are increasingly feeding directors to NZX boards, indicating strong director training programs.
Declining Pathways: Negative growth may indicate consolidation, industry changes, or a shift in which organizations serve as director incubators.
Sector Mobility: Increasing cross-sector transitions suggest boards value diverse industry experience and are appointing directors with broader perspectives.
