In this live, one-hour session, Ms. Tracy and Ms. Carter will offer practical insights into building a sustainable leadership pipeline. Topics will include filling key executive roles to support organizational growth, balancing internal leadership development with external recruitment, and creating a culture that fosters long-term leadership development.

“Ensuring leadership continuity—and the organizational resilience that comes with it—requires consistent investment in succession planning,” said Monica E. Oss, Chief Executive Officer of OPEN MINDS. “This means building internal bench strength while being prepared to act in both planned and emergency situations. Succession planning isn’t just risk mitigation; it’s a strategic imperative.”

Key Takeaways:

  • How to align succession planning with your strategic plan
  • How to communicate transparently about retirements and leadership transitions
