Overview
Studies from groups such as the Center for Creative Leadership and Lominger have found that many companies have leaders and employees who lack the competencies needed for success. This 60-minute webinar shows how to use job rotation and assignments to build an internal talent pool and bench strength.
You'll learn the business case for job rotation programs and how rotation and cross-training link to career development, succession planning and other talent initiatives.
The session gives you a step-by-step plan and checklist for designing and implementing a program, selecting candidates and measuring results, and shows how rotation can support new business models.
Why attend: When key people resign, take leave or move for business growth, gaps in critical roles can disrupt service. Job rotation prepares employees who can step into those roles and keep the business running. This session suits HR professionals, recruiters, learning and talent managers, leadership development and OD staff, HR business partners, line managers and leadership teams.
