About This Resource

In 2022 we kicked off a 4-part webinar the series lead by former ESE leader and now consultant Tess Reynolds. In this series we focused on, the tough but much needed topic, of succession planning.

In session 2 we continued the series by looking at what to consider when outlining a plan for managing an unforeseen or emergency leadership transition, including:

  • What Constitutes a Leadership Emergency
  • Emergency Succession Plan Scenarios
  • Elements of an Emergency Succession Plan
Below is the session recording and accompanying materials.
