| Summary: | The issue of management succession is becoming increasingly important
in modern organisations, particularly in the context of globalisation, rapidly changing
markets and the challenges of the labour market. Succession is not only about filling
management positions, but also about ensuring the long-term survival and success
of the organisation. Succession planning and implementation needs to take into
account a number of factors, such as identifying current and future leadership skills,
developing potential successors, and maintaining organisational culture and
strategic objectives. The process of successful leadership succession involves
selecting the right candidates who not only have the necessary technical and
management skills, but are also capable of addressing the future challenges of the
organisation. To do this, organisations need to proactively identify and develop
talent by providing long-term mentoring programmes and training for future leaders.
A key element of succession planning is the retention and transfer of organisational
knowledge, based on collaboration between experienced leaders and newly
appointed leaders. Such processes allow the organisation to run smoothly during
leadership transitions, minimising potential disruption and preserving continuity of
organisational culture. In addition, succession planning can also serve as a strategic
tool for the organisation, providing an opportunity to rethink and optimise
organisational structure and processes. This can ensure not only the smooth filling
of management positions, but also the long-term growth and competitiveness of the
organisation. Succession is therefore not a simple task, but a complex, multidimensional process that requires careful planning and implementation to sustain
organisational success. In my future research, I would like to examine the
succession of managers in Hungarian organisations working with older people. I am
interested in the extent to which this is a problem for the organisation and whether
the candidates will be drawn from the former members or whether an outsider will
fill the post. I am also concerned about the reasons for the difficulty of succession. |
