Talent And Succession Management

This week, Lucinda talks about talent and succession management strategies with a particular focus on smaller to mid-size organisations. Additionally, she busts through some of the more common succession planning jargon, to give you a far better idea of how to develop an effective talent strategy. Key Takeaways Indeed, in a smaller sized business, there is an advantage, in that roles can be tailored to the skills at hand, thereby better serving the business needs. Furthermore, attracting external talent can be made far easier if we have in place a robust talent management strategy, that rewards those who have taken the time to develop. When implementing a career progression pathway, it’s important to think about the ways in which progress, and their pace. People will be far more motivated to try to progress, if the pathway to doing so is fair and balanced across the board.
