Getting Succession Planning Right Using Assessments
September 19, 2019
1:30 PM - 2:30 PM
 Katy Boardroom

Despite the best intentions and time invested, many of today’s leadership succession planning processes miss the mark.  In fact, for decades studies consistently show that leadership ineffective rates are unacceptably high.  As we move to the fast-paced, constantly changing future, staying on the same course could have devasting results.  With today’s succession planning processes, there is too much room for human biases and gaps in observations that influence decisions. Also, an abundance of hidden talent, largely found with diverse candidates, is never brought to the surface because traditional methods often fail to recognize true or raw talent. In order to make essential data-driven decisions to identify, develop and deploy the best talent for your organization, a scientifically validated assessment is essential. Learn how to design a top-down succession planning assessment strategy using scientifically validated instruments to meet the rapidly changing and disruptive challenges of the future.
