New CEO to Be Appointed at Next Year's Regular General Shareholders' Meeting

KT Finalizes 33 Candidates for Next CEO... To Narrow Down to One by Year-End View original image

On November 18, KT's CEO Candidate Recommendation Committee announced that it had completed the formation of a pool of 33 candidates for the CEO position, including those who applied through the public recruitment process held from November 4 to 16 at 6 p.m., as well as in-house candidates and those recommended by professional organizations.


The committee plans to operate a selection advisory panel composed of external experts in corporate management, industry, leadership, and communication to enhance the objectivity and expertise of the CEO candidate review process. The advisory panel will provide the committee with its assessments of both internal and external candidates based on document review, and the committee will use these opinions to narrow down the pool of candidates. However, to ensure fairness in the evaluation, the specific composition of the advisory panel will not be disclosed.



The committee plans to conduct document and interview evaluations of the candidates and select the final candidate within the year to report to the board of directors. The board will then confirm one final candidate based on these results and recommend this person at the general shareholders' meeting. The final candidate is expected to be officially appointed as the new CEO at next year's regular general shareholders' meeting.
