What value is delivered?

Visier People Succession is designed to help organizations ensure that key roles have ready successors, and this is its unique value proposition:

Optimize Succession Planning: Provides a comprehensive overview of employees, typically leaders or employees in mission-critical roles, who have or do not have potential replacements. This enables organizations to identify any gaps and train the next generation of leaders. This reduces disruption and loss of organizational knowledge due to retirement and mitigates risk by ensuring important incumbents have a successor ready to replace them.

Why is it important? By optimizing succession planning, organizations can be better prepared for future leadership needs and changes. It allows for the proactive identification and development of potential successors, reducing the need for rushed or unplanned leadership transitions. With a well-prepared succession plan in place, organizations can respond to unexpected events or opportunities more effectively, ensuring a smooth transfer of responsibilities and maintaining organizational performance.

Succession Planning
To explore and analyze succession planning, you can load the employee or position ID of the employee in need of succession, the employee ID of the successor, its readiness and the effective date of recorded data.

What does this enable? You can use this information to count the number of individuals who have been identified for succession planning or selected as successor(s), assess their readiness, and calculate the percentage of incumbents with ready successors. This helps you answer questions such as:

• Do we have enough succession candidates?

• Do we have equity across our succession plans?

• Which critical leaders are most at risk of leaving the organization? Do we have a successor ready to replace them?
