Career Planning And Succession Management

Drawing on a survey of 1,000 practitioners and examples from a variety of organizations, Rothwell (workforce education and development, Pennsylvania State University) shows human resource professionals and other corporate leaders how to create a link between succession and career development programs to prevent top performers from leaving, balance the needs of promoting from within versus bringing in new talent, and deal with unexpected "retirements" in an age of corporate scandal. Numerous diagnostics and checklists are included. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR\
