Succession Planning Basics for Faith-Based and Secular Organisations Richard Dare Ajiboye

This book delves into topical issues that are scarcely talked about in some organisations (secular and FBOs). It points out the sureness of succession just as death is, even though most organisations do less to think about the topic of succession until it is rather too late. Contemporary issues about succession planning were discussed using the Relay Race, Horse Race and God Factor Theories and their significance in identifying and grooming prospective successors for key and leadership positions. This book also emphasises the imperativeness of role transition either planned for or not and the attendant challenges of not planning for succession. It practically guides about how to start off a healthy and successful succession planning process from identifying prospective successors to leadership or role transition. Critical issues raised in the book and pragmatic solutions proffered have vivid applications in all organisations either FBOs or secular, which makes the book appealing to all organisations not minding its size, purpose or geographical location. The book comes at a time when some organisations are seeking to find solutions to organisational management challenges. Therefore, the book Succession Planning Basics for Faith-Based and Secular Organisations is recommended with confidence to general readership, especially to students of management, leaders in FBOs, captain of industries and as many as may want their ideals and philosophies to endure long after them.
