FUTURE TALENT PIPELINE: HOW TO DEVELOP AND MAINTAIN YOUR AGENCY’S SUCCESSION PLAN

Future Talent Pipeline: How to Develop and Maintain your Agency’s Succession Plan
The current work climate calls for a substantial revamp of succession planning, which includes
adapting to the shortage in ready talent, a greater focus on agility, and the ability to lead a
hybrid workforce. While a handful of agencies are proactively refreshing their succession plans,
let’s be real; many don’t have one to begin with.

In this interactive and hands-on workshop, we will explore the business case for having a well-
developed succession plan and the profound impact it can have on organizational culture. As
trusted advisors who serve the public sector, we have seen what works, what doesn’t, and what
trends you need to take into account if you want to move your organization from talking about
succession planning to actually developing your organization. During our session, we will build a
succession planning model based on our playbook that you can apply to your own organization
to hit the ground running. We also have some enticing giveaways for a few lucky participants
who need a little extra help developing their plan.
