Developing the Succession Plan

Developing the Succession Plan is a process that involves the planning, development, and execution of succession plans. In this case study on IBM’s current plan for managing its workforce in Europe, it is evident that there are many stages involved with developing these strategies as well as varying degrees of complexity at each stage. There is also evidence to support that some people within organizations may not recognize or approve the work being done by those tasked with creating their own succession plans because they believe their individual success will be dependent upon one person who has been given authority over themselves without input from them first.
