Why Study Succession Planning?
Change is one of the only predictable constants in a business setting. One of the most dynamic components of an organisation is its workforce, which is continuously changing and evolving. People leave, ambitious employees pursue promotion and others are singled out by management as future leaders. Some simply switch from one role or department to another - there are even those who request moving down the leadership ladder for a reduction in responsibilities. In all such instances, business development planning and succession planning are essential. Effective succession planning enables a business to ensure the right people are lined up for the right positions at the right times. This way, an expected or surprise vacancy can be filled as quickly as possible by the perfect candidate for the job. All businesses are reliant on effective succession planning, irrespective of size and sector.
By the end of this course the learner will be able to:
- Demonstrate an understanding of the value of succession planning for successful businesses.
-
Demonstrate expertise with the key elements of a succession plan.
