Succession Planning Consultant

Reports to: Juzoor Project Manager

1. Background:

As part of the ongoing partnership between Global Communities and Juzoor for Health and Social Development in the Active Citizenry Activity (ACA) project funded by the USAID, we aim to build and upgrade the capacities of Juzoor’s staff. Juzoor is seeking the services to hold a two-day workshop covering a total of 15 hours to train 19 Juzoor staff members to be completed before end July 2024.

2. Rationale:

Succession planning identifies and develops potential future managers within an organization to ensure operational continuity. It is essential in the event of an unexpected departure of a key employee or a planned retirement. Succession planning allows for proper employee training to be put in place to prepare individuals for future managerial positions, resulting in higher employee retention.

By having transparent upward mobility in the organization, new hires have a clearer idea of how to climb the organizational ladder, thus allowing them to set reasonable expectations and stay in the organization longer.

Finally, succession planning is beneficial even during layoffs. Organizations can retain institutional knowledge and use it to train new employees. The plan enables them to run operations smoothly despite the change in leadership.

3. Training Elements:
   • How to conduct the Assessment
     Understand potential issues in the future, the critical positions that will address these challenges, and the skills required for each role to deal with the problems properly.
