Once critical roles, and potential successors are determined, succession planning only succeeds if those successors are developed to step up. This programme develops the skills needed in potential successors to make a more smooth transition into the critical role when the time comes. It also develops leadership skills and strategic thinking ability.

This workshop is delivered flexibly depending on the needs of the organisation and participants, and usually in conjunction with on-site learning/human resources professionals (if applicable). The most usual delivery is 1/2 - 1 day monthly or two-monthly with individual coaching in between.
