Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of making the results of succession planning public.

What will be an ideal response?


One critical issue in succession planning is whether to make the results of the process public. One advantage of doing so is that employees may stay because they have an understanding of promotion prospects. Another advantage is that high-potential employees who are not interested in other positions can communicate their intentions. The company can then avoid investing resources and have a more accurate picture of its potential future talent. On the flip side, those not on the list may become discouraged and leave the company. Furthermore, employees might not believe they have had a fair chance to compete for leadership positions if they already know that a list of potential candidates has been established.
