What is succession planning?

Succession planning is a strategy organisations use to identify and groom potential replacements for current leaders or business-critical knowledge workers when they leave or retire. Succession planning programs are designed to prevent the loss of knowledge, productivity, and morale that often accompany changes in company leadership. By implementing an effective succession planning strategy, companies can ensure a smooth transition that avoids disrupting business operations.

Know what makes a great leader in your organisation

The process of identifying future leaders starts by accurately defining the specific capabilities that drive leadership success in the unique context of your organisation. AbilityMapโ€™s 31-point capability framework includes leadership capabilities that enable you to prescribe what โ€˜bestโ€™ leaders look like in your team.

AbilityMap's key differences: our software tailors an effective succession planning process that aligns with your business strategy and company culture.
Using AbilityMap for talent management: fill key positions, upgrade core skills, and create succession plans for senior leaders.
