SUCCESSION PLANNING

Few events carry greater risk to shareholder value than a change of leadership, however, many organisations have ineffective processes for finding and preparing the next generation of leaders.  We understand that mapping out generations of future leaders is hard to do alone. 

Our succession management process help organisations clarify, enhance, design and implement more effective succession strategies and resource planning.

Our succession management solutions include:

Executive Succession

We draw on our vast database of executive assessments to create a whole person success profile aligned to the organisation's strategy. We then assess internal and external candidates against it using multiple assessors and assessment techniques, including a unique simulation exercise that places candidates in realistic situations faced by a Senior Executive.  Our assessment process produces powerful insights for the Board, enabling them to make confident decisions about their next executive hire, but also for the candidate themselves. This means the positive impact is far-reaching, advancing the capabilities of individual executives, top teams, and entire organisations.   

Talent Review

Our powerful and proven Talent Review process gives an organisation a clearer understanding of its talent at every level and reveals if its succession planning is, or is not, producing the leaders it requires. This research-based, validated and repeatable process pinpoints development needs enabling organisations to develop their talent in a differentiated way to maximize individual and organisational impact.

Individual Development

We offer Individual Development against role gaps and group development against organisational gaps as well as role-specific or strategic strategies.

Our approach helps clients gain clarity about their talent needs, identifies high-potential candidates within their organisation, improves alignment between their leaders and strategy and ultimately boost their prospects for long-term growth.
