Enterprise succession

What it works from

• Critical role definitions and success profiles
• Candidate and team evidence at scale
• Your readiness and potential criteria

What you get back

• Readiness buckets per candidate with aggregated bench depth
• Named continuity risks across the population
• A governance-grade record of how each judgement was reached

Why this is expensive by hand

Enterprise succession analysis at scale: this template calibrates a Blueprint for the critical roles, runs every candidate against it, buckets readiness, aggregates bench depth across the population and branches where evidence is thin. Group-wide talent review is the typical trigger — assess bench strength across many critical roles with the same benchmark applied to every candidate. Done properly it is defensible; done at pace it becomes a judgement call nobody can retrace. And "properly" usually means 3–4 weeks of manual work.

How this Skill produces it

Here the same job runs as a Skill. Your material goes in; readiness buckets per candidate with aggregated bench depth comes out, alongside named continuity risks across the population. The judgement is built in — how items are broken up, what standard they are held to, and where the run stops for a human review. Net effect: 3–4 weeks down to ~40 minutes, no drift between runs, and every conclusion traceable back to the evidence behind it.
