A 1 day Business Succession Planning training course can be incredibly beneficial to any SME organisation.
Change is a hallmark of today’s business world. In particular, our workforce is constantly changing – people come and go, and move into new roles within the company. Succession planning can help you make the most of that change by ensuring that when someone leaves, there is someone new to take their place.
It is surprising that from a one day workshop we could help you learn or teach your staff:
- The value of succession planning for successful businesses.
- The key elements of a succession plan in terms of roles, responsibility, function, scope, and evaluation.
