Fundamentals of Succession Planning for Executives
Executive Leadership|5 days|Classroom or live online
Fundamentals of Succession Planning for Executives is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through organisational culture and negotiation at senior level without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because board expectations of executive communication have risen sharply, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with enterprise risk oversight, delegation and accountability and succession at executive level in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about enterprise risk oversight without waiting for a specialist, measured against the King IV governance code
- Improve delegation and accountability within their own organisation
- Put succession at executive level on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Bring crisis leadership into line with current good practice
