TEAM BUILDING & SUCCESSION PLANNING
Succession Planning is an important part of a company’s performance management system.
The hallmark of a great leader is one who sets his or her successors up for success, rather than failure.
However, in many companies this is not the case. Jim Collins, author of Good to Great (1991), found that in over three quarters of the comparison companies in his study, executives chose weak successors and regularly set their successors up for failure. Collins indicated that because of ego or what he calls the “Big Dog Syndrome”, these executives did not leave behind companies that would be great without them.
Performance Management
Don’t let your company fall victim to the memory drain when top performers leave or retire. To ensure your company’s long term success, it is important as a part of your company’s workforce performance management system, to think about career tracks for your employees. Career tracks match employees with duties and responsibilities that maximize performance, employee morale, and company success.
