Key Steps in Navigating the Succession Planning Process
Most successful businesses are aware of the importance of succession planning – the process of identifying influential positions within an organization, then training existing employees or new candidates to ensure those roles do not go unfilled. A succession plan typically focuses on high-level positions that, if left open, would adversely affect the company’s profitability and success. Taking into consideration the number of choices, opportunities and even misfortunes that can affect one’s career, it becomes essential to prepare for a leader’s sudden or unexpected departure with a proper succession plan.
