Succession Planning Matrix

Succession planning matrix is a well-structured process that highlights an organization’s strengths with clarity. A 9-box grid forms the crux of a succession planning matrix in which individuals are classified into nine sub-categories based on individual performance and potential. A diagnosis is then undertaken for their development. Succession planning matrix is also a widely used talent management tool today.

A succession planning matrix uses a 9-box grid to gain insights into an organization’s performance and talent to create an impactful and successful succession plan. A succession planning matrix also recognizes those with the potential to become a part of the succession pool and addresses their vulnerabilities to meet imminent needs. It lays a successful and structured pathway, offering enhanced responsibilities and exposure.
