Succession Planning

An easy, step-by-step guide to developing a succession plan for filling key organizational positions vacated by retirement or attrition. Filled with good examples and exercises that can be used in the workplace to develop the plan. I like books that have forms that I can adapt to my situation. I recommend for anyone tasked to do a plan who doesn't have time to read a lot of theory.

Good introduction to succession planning

Especially for the smaller business or the family firm, Wolfe's book provides a concise guide to establishing a succession management strategy. Her writing is free of jargon, and unlike many management books, isn't repetitive or especially boring. I recommend it for anyone contemplating whether a succession management strategy is needed for their business.
