Succession planning
"Success without a successor is failure." - Hans Finzel, The Top Ten Mistakes Leaders Make.
Strong leadership is and always has been a relatively scarce commodity. To lose a strong, effective CEO is a serious blow to any organisation, particularly if they do not have an immediate replacement. In fact staff turnover at every level in organisations can prove costly, not only in terms of recruitment, but also in terms of your ability to deliver effectively for your customers.
Succession planning is now a business imperative; CHPD can support you with the following:
Role profiling - Individual’s profiled against a role profile to highlight areas for development and evaluate readiness for a move into that specific role.
Assessment - both internal and external candidates
Development - courses and coaching
Recruitment - assessment centres, psychometrics, leadership behaviour questionnaires
We have helped dozens of companies plan ahead to ensure successful successions.
