Description

Succession planning is critical to an organization’s success, now more than ever.  Typically organizations engage in the process to determine successors due to retirements; however, the process is much more complex than that.  With today’s talent shortage, succession planning provides opportunities for high potential employees to understand their future and thus, aids in retention.  The process identifies key roles and individuals and fully prepares the organization for vacancies in key positions, regardless of the reason for the departure.  With a well-defined process and practical approaches, every organization can have a plan in place.
