Developing a 'how to' succession plan may not be something you want to think about because you don't want to entertain the thought of your best people leaving key roles; and while it may be the most prudent approach to try and keep your staff superstars happy and motivated, you'll also need a backup succession planning process in case you need to release your favourite employee back into the wild.
