Participants build a succession pipeline for critical roles, including readiness assessment and development planning for successors, alongside a rewards strategy benchmarked against market data to retain high-potential staff. Case studies examine organisations that lost key talent despite having a succession plan on paper, and what a genuinely integrated approach requires instead.
