Companies face rising performance expectations while talent moves more often than ever. Many larger organizations have started succession planning for senior roles, but few can say the right talent is always ready at the right time. The goal is that the business plan runs without a hiccup from a talent perspective.
This 60-minute succession planning webinar shares lessons learned as succession practices have matured. You'll look at business cases, best practices and guiding principles, and how to move from a simple to a systematic approach. The session covers talent reviews, critical job risk assessments, integrating succession planning with business planning, common challenges and pitfalls, and the metrics used.
You'll also learn whether to build or buy talent and how to identify high potentials.
