Remember Succession plan may be expected practice – its absence is more a curse than its presence a blessing Succession program should limit their focus to linch-pin positions – those considered most critical to the organization’s need. http://www.themanagementskills.com/

Editor's Notes

  • #10 The protean person’s own personal career choices and search for self-fulfillment are the unifying or integrative elements in his/her life. The criterion of success is internal (psychological success), not external.
  • #14 CAST integrates individual and organizational focus to career development – it is an active system CAST is set at the three level of analysis – Values - The basic underlying level – the principle, ,orals, culture – forms the roots from which the other levels emerge. Approaches and assumptions – translates those values into the third level, Behavior - Action and practice.
  • #15 self-exploration and analysis – self assessment (e.g. workshops, tailor made work books by IBM, Xerox, GM & GE) – we can also develop same at our end Accurate assessment – AC, biographical information, PMS and current job history Informal or formal? Informal – employee learn about career development opportunities from their supervisors within the context of developmental performance appraisal and interviews. Formal – traditional/ behavioral career paths identified and communicated through work-books etc Possible career directions, possible career advancements, specific job vacancies Developmental performance appraisal interviews, identify gaps and developmental opportunities
  • #17 Structured – process having some reliable structure and/or custom and not ‘just-in-time’ identification of successor Identification & preparation -
  • #22 Link to strategy as more aspirational than actualized – even in best practice companies
