Discussion Post: Succession Planning
Many leaders in organizations either do not believe in succession planning or do not follow-through with the succession plan initiative.
Your goal is to help build/create a high-level leadership succession plan to convince the executive leadership team to move forward with further research to implement (do not select CEO succession planning). The research should include major reasons why leadership succession planning is important (your plan should include a minimum of three reasons).
Research a tailored, formal, systemic, systematic, and experientially-based leadership succession planning and recommend one of these methods as part of your plan.
