Crafting Tomorrow′s Leadership Today: A Practitioner′s View of Succession and Replacement Planning
Abstract
Describes the approach to replacement and succession planning successfully used by the human resource function of a Canadian packaging group. The approach is based on the evaluation of seven essential behavioural characteristics for managers as criteria separately for replacement (today) and succession (three to five years on). Advocates the development of both generic and job‐focused behavioural competences and the institutionalization of succession/replacement planning.
