HR Planning
Human Resource Planning or Manpower Planning (HRP) is the
process of systematically reviewing HR requirements to ensure that
the required number of employees with the required skills is
available when they are needed. Getting the right number of
qualified people into the right job is the context of the problem here.
Succession Planning
Everything you need to know about succession planning.
Succession planning is a process of ensuring a suitable supply of
successors for current and future key jobs.
Succession planning is an essential activity that focuses on
planning and managing the career of individuals to optimize their
needs and aspirations.
The term succession planning can be better understood by
studying its characteristics. A succession of persons to fill key
positions over time is essential for the survival and success of an
organization.
The purpose of succession planning is to identify and develop
people to replace current incumbents in key positions in cases of
resignation, retirement, promotions, growth, expansion and
creation of new positions.
