Do you have concerns about the future of your team? Does your company utilize succession planning that seems ineffective? Or maybe you’re feeling to need for additional leaders in your team, but uncertain how to develop new leaders.
Succession planning is often neglected, maybe even ignored. In cases where succession planning exists, it seems to be ineffective.
The success of a team rises and falls on leadership, so the future of your team is dependent upon succession planning. You can set your team up for success in the future with effective planning.
Effective succession planning isn’t an event, meeting, or document to complete. You may have a meeting scheduled with your leadership to review succession plans, but don’t fall victim to the illusion that a meeting represents effective succession planning.
You have to view succession planning as a daily activity. In this podcast episode, I’ll share with you activities that will ensure the future success of your team.
