Succession planning, giving talents prospects with

SAP SuccessFactors Succession & Development

It is the biggest concern of many company founders: finding a suitable successor. But this challenge also exists for many other critical positions. The better these were previously filled, the more difficult and critical suitable succession planning becomes. At the same time, employees want to have a development perspective, understand what they might be missing for their desired position, or how to continue on their career path in the long term and how to plan for it. These two sides of the same coin are combined in SAP SuccessFactors Succession & Development.

Highlights

Identify and develop successors at an early stage

The more know-how, skills and experience are needed in a position, the more critical it is when the person in question is suddenly no longer available. Be it because he or she leaves the company, moves internally to another position or is unexpectedly no longer available for other reasons.

The Human Resources Developmentdepartments in companies often lack the necessary information for a good succession planning and the decisions about succession appear intransparent. This is where SAP SuccessFactors Succession & Development enables a transparent and consistent process for the entire company. Succession planning is actively designed, rather than just reactively managed, through structured succession planning that creates the prerequisites at an early stage to have ready successors available in case of emergency.

The company takes precautions by identifying and preparing successors for potential vacancies. And at the same time, the company's talented employees have the opportunity to verify target positions themselves and compare the job's requirements with their own skills.
