FAQs about
Succession Management & Planning
Effective corporate Succession Planning increases the internal availability of capable individuals who are ready and prepared to step up into more senior roles as they become available.
The first step is to identify positions that are integral to the company’s success. These are the positions that, without successors, will cause the company’s growth to slow or stop. In most cases, the higher people are in the chain of command, the more crucial it becomes to identify a successor.
The 3 biggest challenges in Succession Planning are:
- Deciding who to promote. While someone might be a high-performer at their particular level or position, that might not necessarily mean they have got the skills or talents needed to take the next step up the ladder
- Resisting bias
- Maintaining company morale
