Succession plan

Named internal successors for the positions the business relies on.

A succession plan identifies the positions the business cannot afford to leave empty and the people ready to step into them. In Vintage People you flag critical positions, record flight risk, and name successors with a readiness date, so a key resignation already has an answer. The 9-box and promotion readiness help you choose who to name.
