Session Description
This interactive panel discussion is meant to answer questions regarding CEO succession planning which can often be overlooked until it becomes a corporate crisis. Which side of the baton are you on? Do you have retirement and sandy beaches in your near future? Maybe you're just getting started and want to buy an existing company or take over the family business. Whatever your situation, there's plenty to consider. This session will provide an overview of what you'll need for a successful handoff that will put your organization in a winning position.
If you’re unsure if this session is for you, ask yourself if you’ve considered the following:
• Why should my organization have a succession plan?
• What is the most important factor in building a succession plan?
• How do I gain buy-in from employees and the management team?
• What are some common pitfalls?
Many myths surround this process. Panelists will share their perspectives on the following:
- Companies know who the next CEO will be
- There is one best model for succession planning
- The Board of Directors is best suited to evaluate CEO talent
