Readiness Indicators by Staff Type

In succession planning, assessing a candidate's readiness for a role involves collaboration among key evaluators, such as the manager, HR, and other predefined or user-defined assessors. These evaluators contribute to different sections of the readiness assessment form, focusing on criteria tailored to the candidate’s role and organizational needs. The assessment process incorporates weighted scoring, where each indicator’s importance is defined based on the staff type, ensuring a fair and consistent evaluation framework.

If staff types are not being used, or if the organization opts to use a single readiness form for all roles across the company, the staff type field should be left blank. This simplifies the process while maintaining the flexibility to evaluate readiness consistently across various positions. By mapping specific readiness indicators and assigning appropriate weights, organizations can generate a comprehensive readiness score that aligns with the unique requirements of each role or the company as a whole.
