Succession Planning: Developing Talent from Within
Research shows that most companies have little or no deliberate succession planning in place—and aren’t fully aware of how much the lack of it can cost their organization, especially in an unstable economy. Managing the succession of talent is a vital strategic process that minimizes gaps in leadership and enables your best people to develop the skills necessary for possible future roles.
