    Selection/Identification

    Looking at your current bench strength, how optimistic for the future are you?

    Building your bench strength through talent pipeline management.

    How strong is your bench?

    “Bench strength” refers to the capabilities and readiness of potential successors to move into key professional and leadership positions. The term comes from baseball, for which it refers to a team’s line-up of highly skilled players who can step in when a player is hurt or replaced.

    In business, bench strength is so important because organisations continuously go through turnover, restructuring, and changes in business strategy. Whenever a critical person leaves your organisation you should have a “ready successor” or plan for replacement to avoid business interruption.

    We help you uncover organisational competencies and make sure you have the right people for those pivotal roles that play such a big role in driving success. We support you in the areas of:

    • Talent/Succession Strategy

    • 360 Degree Feedback
