Course Overview

What is Strategic Succession Planning? Strategic Succession Planning is a process for identifying and developing internal employees with the potential to assume key business leadership positions in the company.

Succession Planning in a further formal definition is the process of identifying one or more successors for critical positions and preparing them for expanded organizational responsibilities through job assignments and other developmental activities.

Why Strategic Succession Planning? Succession Planning increases the availability of experienced and capable employees that are prepared to assume strategic & leadership roles as they become available.

The success of every world-class organization can be traced back to a visible or invisible leader who possessed world-class leadership qualities. But we can’t completely rely on a single leader.

The organization should have a pool of leaders who can take larger responsibilities and roles as and when it becomes available. The foundation for coping successfully with last-minute hiring surprises is Succession Planning.

Organizational survival in a globally competitive business environment depends in part on having identified and developed replacements/successors for business-critical positions. This is the essence of succession planning.
