Succession Management in HR Planning

Succession management is the process of ensuring skilled employees are available to meet organizational objectives by identifying potential candidates for key positions and preparing them. It has evolved from simple replacement planning by broadening focus, expanding time horizons, creating talent pools, and improving evaluations. The succession management process aligns with strategy, identifies needed skills, recognizes high potentials, and provides development through promotions, rotations, assignments, training, and coaching to monitor succession. Potential issues include elitism, risk of attention, selection bias, and unpredictability.
