Succession planning is a systematic process of identifying, assessing and developing employees to prepare them for future roles.  It helps you build bench strength and decide where people should belong on the bus.  In small to mid-sized organizations, this may involve setting the stage for respectful transitions of owners or key executives.  Unfortunately, most organizations wait until it’s too late—or a crisis occurs—to recognize the need for a plan. 

 As anHR professional, it’s your role to engage managers in succession planning.  Today, you’ll learn five best practices for developing and implementing a plan that fits your culture.  These are simple tools backed by extensive research at Harvard Business School.  You’ll come away with a usable framework—and a new opportunity to be a strategic partner in your organization’s success. 

 Connie Kotke is principal of Nautilus Communications LLC, a consulting practice dedicated to helping businesses improve financial performance and employee engagement through sound communication strategies.      

 Prior to founding Nautilus, Kotke spent nearly 20 years leading brand, marketing communications, organizational effectiveness and investor relations.  She developed continuous improvement initiatives for The Toro Company during a seven-year period when stock price rose 545% and profit after tax more than tripled.    

 Kotke earned a Master of Business Communication degree from the University of St. Thomas and graduated summa cum laude from Concordia University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Organizational Management and Communications.  In addition to partnering with a wide range of clients, she is an adjunct instructor for graduate programs at Saint Mary’s University in Minneapolis and conducts workshops throughout the state on a variety of current topics.  Her previous experience as owner of a manufacturing company makes her an effective entrepreneurial coach with the Minnesota Small Business Development Center.
