About the Event

Due to popular demand, we are adding a LIVE Version Of The Succession Planning & Talent Development Certification Program in Zurich!

Succession planning is an objective, intentional, and systematic effort. By identifying and developing current and future leaders, you can ensure leadership continuity and execute your organization's strategic priorities. In other words, it helps current leaders and HR stakeholders answer these two critical questions: Who should lead? And when?

Building a strong leadership pipeline requires talent that is nurtured and developed at all levels in alignment with an organization's business strategy. This is the best way to ensure individual readiness and support future growth.

HCI's Succession Planning & Talent Development certification program is designed to help you align your organization's succession planning and talent development efforts with your business strategy using a practical but compelling framework to guide your team's efforts.

What You'll Learn:

  • Purpose: Define succession planning objectives that solve current challenges and align with organizational strategies

  • Level: Understand the needs of your talent segments and target organizational levels intentionally

  • Assess: Identify leaders objectively with data and analytics and evaluate the performance of succession planning objectives

  • Nurture: Develop continuously to ensure retention and readiness for current and future roles
