Succession planning is a process of identifying key positions within an organization to ensure employees are recruited, discovered, and developed to fill positions within your workplace. Most people view this as a Human Resources department problem, but it impacts all areas of an organization. Currently 55 percent of organizations do not have a formal succession planning program in place! Whether your workplace is large or small, you cannot afford to let your prime talent walk out the door.

On Monday, June ^4th, Kelley Bruns presented the web seminar “The Top 5 Problems with Succession Planning.” Kelley reviewed the basics of succession planning, identifying the top 5 problems to avoid.  She also discussed how to be part of the workplaces that have successfully retained up to 98 percent of their workforce and experienced a recruitment success rate of up to 80 percent.
