Succession planning is critical to any organization’s future success and as such, must be integrated with internal HR practices and clearly linked to business strategy. An effective and well planned succession planning process can assist in retaining top performers by integrating individual career development plans; ensure business continuity as predicted turnover occurs; support workforce planning such as planned reorganizations and market shifts; and can also create a sustainable leadership model. But in order to do so, it is critical to establish and maintain a systematic succession planning program.

This webinar will provide participants with a step-by-step model that connects career development and succession planning processes in order to build a strong talent foundation. The webinar will introduce and explain processes and tools   most commonly applied in best practice approaches when integrating career development into succession planning models. The session will also provide insight into how to implement career development and succession planning into an organization, and how to maintain the program once it’s introduced.
