ERE Webex Succession Planning Long Term Sept 22 2010

Preview:

DESCRIPTION

In the recovery period of one of the worst recessions in years, it can be difficult to think ahead to where your employees will stand in a year, let alone five. But leadership development is crucial to the success of your organization and succession planning needs to start before employees are even hired. In this informative webinar, George Bradt of PrimeGenesis will cover the essentials of an effective long term succession planning strategy. Learn how to create a strategy that will prepare your employees to smoothly transition from role to role, from the onboarding process all the way to leadership positions. Make sure your organization is prepared for the future!
