Staff Succession
The Resignation of Key Personnel or start of New Personnel is Often an Anxious Time
Are you full prepared for a key staff member leaving the organisation? What are the risks involved?
Is everything they know, all their responsibilities, knowledge of systems stored and easily accessible for other people to make sure that services and processes can continue as normal?
Worst case scenario?
- Exercise in damage control
- An unseemly scramble that can hurt an organisation and lead to
- Unnecessary internal chaos
- Workload of remaining staff
- Negative effect on customers
- Destroy shareholder value.
Organisations that do not adequately plan for succession for key staff members leave themselves open to instability, internal politics, rumors, and the potential loss of the highest performers.
So why doesn’t succession planning get the attention it deserves? Is there a better way to manage the situation, since nothing is more certain than staff leaving the business and the problem is never going to go away?
