National leaders constantly reinvent themselves and their nations as part of maintaining their control.
However Khasekhem/Khasekhemwy's situation is a lot clearer than that of Narmer/Menes..

his serekh is on the right..Peribsen's(his predessessor) to the left
Up until Peribsen, the Serekh was topped by Horus
for some reason his was Seth
and then Khasekhemwy's has both..
followed by Netjerikhet's having just Horus..but then
Netjerikhet also had the first cartouche
combine this with Khasekhmewy's numerous Major Constructions, and of course the Innovations of Netjerikhet/Imhotep and the ensuing Pyramid Age..
and I think one can make a pretty good case for Khasekhemwy having been at the helm at a time of great change accompanied by the stability of wealth, power and a fully functional infrastructure and administration.
