Why do Succession Planning?

To insure that:

  • The next generation is prepared when the present generation is ready to retire.
  • Your company doesn’t experience a disruption of growth when the leadership succession takes place.
  • You have a purposeful, well-thought out plan to implement instead of having to do it in an emergency.
  • Your younger employees have the security of knowing the company will be there long after the current leadership retires.

What is involved in succession planning and how long does it last?

  • Identifying which leaders need to be replaced and the positions to be filled, then creating job descriptions for each position if not already created.
  • Developing a timeline for the leadership transition to take place.
  • Identifying the high potential candidates to succeed the present leadership.
  • Having each of these candidates complete a 360 degree assessment.
  • Developing a plan to prepare these candidates to fill the present leadership positions. This includes coaching, training, shadowing and project management.

This process typically takes one year and involves one-day per month visits from your ILS consultant.
