Succession Planning

Succession planning puts a lot of pressure on HR professionals.

It is important for them to know how to identify different talents ready to face current and future challenges in high positions. The power of context in this case is reflected in reducing the risk that the successor will not be able to respond to the challenges of the higher position and in increased efficiency which leads to higher productivity of the organization when the success profile for a higher position is created in relation to unique challenges and set of competencies.
