Bowley’s presentation will detail the top five reasons that organizations can’t afford to overlook succession planning. Attendees will learn about the distinct competitive advantage that succession planning creates, the risks associated with bypassing this vital process and the technology that makes it possible to extend initiatives well beyond an organization’s top executives.
