Do these questions make you nervous?
![Page 13: Succession Planning and Leadership Development: Are You Ready? · 7/27/2011 · leadership, participative management, group dynamics, communication, organizational change, and group](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052001/60144142172c374f285602c7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• When you have a job vacancy: –Is your staff ready and willing to apply
for promotion?–Do you have to go outside to fill
leadership positions? What is the cost to your library?
–Does it take too long to fill positions?• Do managers and staff complain that
decisions about promotion or transfer are made on criteria other than best qualifications?
• Is critical turnover high? 13
![Page 14: Succession Planning and Leadership Development: Are You Ready? · 7/27/2011 · leadership, participative management, group dynamics, communication, organizational change, and group](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052001/60144142172c374f285602c7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
More Scary Questions• Are key positions filled – but with less than full
confidence? • What percentage of your leaders would be
selected if they were applying today for their current positions?
• Does your library have the bench strength to staff its strategic and other plans for the changes that will come in the next 5 to 10 years?
• How long would it take to replace a key member of your workforce who resigned, retired or died?

How do you identify the knowledge/skills/abilities you want
employees to have?
Do you identify critical positions at your libraries that you want to ensure have talented employees
who can step in, if only on an interim basis.
