SUMMARY:Succession Planning: Where to Start – Live Online Webinar
DESCRIPTION:\nDESCRIPTION\nPublic safety agencies cannot afford to wait until a key leader announces a retirement to start preparing the next person. Yet many agencies know they need a succession plan and still are not sure where to begin.\nThis live 90-minute webinar gives chiefs, command staff, and mid-level managers a practical starting point. Participants will examine the risks created by leadership turnover, learn a four-phase framework for succession planning, and use a simple readiness check to identify gaps in their own organization. The session also introduces five development strategies agencies can use to strengthen their leadership pipeline over time.\nAttendees will leave with a practical framework for identifying their agency’s most pressing succession-planning needs and determining where to begin. By the end of this webinar, attendees will be able to:\n\nExplain why succession planning is a current operational priority for public safety agencies.\nIdentify likely leadership gaps using retirement and attrition information, mission-critical roles, and a simple readiness assessment.\nDescribe the four phases of an effective succession-planning process.\nSelect an appropriate development strategy and define one practical action to begin within 30 days.\n\n\nWHO SHOULD ATTEND\nChiefs, command staff members, and mid-level managers of police, fire, probation, parole, and correctional agencies.\nPRESENTER\n\n  \nChief Charles Celano (Ret.)Retired Chief Charles F. Celano Jr. is a 27-year veteran of the Tustin Police Department. As founder of Chief Leadership, he has coached leaders from public safety organizations, private companies, and nonprofits. He has also developed comprehensive leadership development programs and provided consulting services on succession planning, strategic planning, and workforce assessments.\n\n
