Succession planning, talent reviews, talent pipelining … these are regular routines within most organisations which vary in quality, approach, and outcomes. They are often related to a ‘standardised’ set of metrics such as churn, distribution curves, engagement surveys, success in promotion and selection decisions etc, and influenced by organisational strategy.
Yet, even in normal times the methodologies deployed can produce results that at best are sometimes questionable and at worst pure “gut feel”. Best practice examples confirm that using data-driven insights, aligning around what ‘good’ looks like and ensuring that operational managers have total accountability and responsibility for the process produce the best outcomes.
