"Successtion Planning"
Attendees will learn Every day of our lives, in some way or another, we experience the opportunity to lead or to follow. In order for each of us to be successful in our professional and personal lives, it is essential that we are able to recognize the qualities of a good leader to be an active contributing member of the team, and to know when to lead and when to follow.
Succession planning is a process to help define who our future leaders are and how to help them reach their fullest potential, through leadership training, succession planning and mentoring, which will help us establish a solid leadership foundation for the future.
This session will:
· Provide an overview of the indispensable qualities of leaders and what individuals can do to cultivate those qualities.
· Analyze succession planning steps to lay the foundation for the future of your chapter or division.
· Discuss mentoring as a tool for leaders to use as part of the succession planning process.
