Overview: Succession management and grooming talent for leadership succession and success begins when someone is hired, continues as they work within the organization and their success is determined by the allocation of time and assessment criteria. You need to know who to develop and what the culture of leadership is within your organization. This is a deliberate development plan with strategic outcomes based on management input and opinion.

Why should you attend: "The importance of business leadership is well articulated by this observation: A good leader can make a success of a weak business plan, but a poor leader can ruin even the best plan."
