Role transitions across all U.S. public companies. The trailing-12-month versus prior-12-month comparison shows whether C-suite and boardroom turnover is genuinely accelerating — not just whether this week felt busy.

How this dataset is built
Every move on this page is sourced directly from SEC EDGAR — Item 5.02 8-Ks for officer and director changes, DEF 14A proxies for board slates, and amended filings for retractions. People, roles, and direction (entering / departing / interim) are extracted as structured fields the moment a filing lands. Board ratings, activist-risk flags, and 1-year TSR versus the S&P 500 are computed from the Boardroom Alpha company-research dataset. SPACs and foreign private issuers are excluded so the counts reflect genuine C-suite churn at U.S. operating companies.
Frequently asked
Executive moves — how it works
- What counts as an executive move?
- Any CEO, CFO, or other named-officer transition (entering, departing, or interim) plus every director addition or resignation disclosed in an SEC filing — most commonly an 8-K Item 5.02 or a DEF 14A. Boardroom Alpha extracts the person, role, and direction as structured fields the moment a filing lands.
- Are these all the moves, or a selection?
- The spotlight surfaces the largest CEO and CFO moves of the week, ranked by market cap, plus smaller companies carrying notable governance signals. Every move at every U.S. public company — including micro-caps — is available on the Boardroom Alpha platform.
- What does the board rating mean?
- The letter grade (A through F) is Boardroom Alpha's board-quality rating — an average of the focal directors' individual tenure scores, built from track record, tenure, committee load, and outside directorships. Lower grades signal weaker boards.
- What is the Activity Pulse?
- The Activity Pulse counts role transitions across all U.S. public companies: this week, month-to-date, the trailing 12 months, and the prior 12 months. The trailing-vs-prior comparison tells you whether C-suite turnover is genuinely accelerating or decelerating, not just whether this week felt busy.
- How often is this updated?
- The tracker refreshes daily from SEC filings. For real-time alerts — every new 8-K and DEF 14A parsed the moment it lands on EDGAR, with alerts on the executives and companies you follow — see the Boardroom Alpha platform.
- How do I get per-person profiles and API access?
- The Boardroom Alpha platform adds per-person profiles with full tenure history, board-quality ratings, activist-risk flags, and programmatic API access to the underlying dataset. Institutional investors, IR teams, and corporate secretaries use it for live monitoring.
