Succession Planning

Having a thorough approach on Succession Planning is increasingly important. It starts with defining the future leadership profile based on the organisational strategy. It helps to develop and retain key talent from within the organisation and understand gaps (both quantitative and qualitative) within the talent pool. Methods are being developed to combine both internal and external succession planning to prepare for unexpected resignations.

Odgers Berndtson has developed two approaches to support your external succession planning which will provide direct access to current and NextGen talent: a ‘cold approach’ and a ‘warm approach’, where we either create and maintain a talent pool for you, or actually introduce relevant talent to you. We can tailor our approach to your organisation's requirements.
