It is important also for organization to recognize and view their existing skill sets in terms of their future operations. Consequently, succession planning should be an essential element of organization's strategic

Succession planning selects and develops future company leaders, but it is also an important opportunity an organization can use to develop employees for non-management roles. Succession planning concentrates on high-potential employees that the organization considers promising for higher-level manager positions (Noe, 2016).

Organisations need to identify and address vacancies within that are caused by retirement or employee dismissal, employee transferring and employee resigning/ promotions. These vacancies can also be caused by new positions created by an organisation (Storey and Sisson, 1993). Among the many techniques used for identify and address future vacancies are working back from cost, systematic techniques and managerial judgement (Taylor, 2008). There are several frameworks and models used to asses staffing needs, examples are:

2) Develop internally. Other, create long-term plan of career, although the talent flows of 50s no longer exist. This traditional approach is a long process, but when a major vacancy opens, it may happen that the candidates identified by the succession plan are not adequate, so in this case it might be better to look outside the company (Holland, Sheehan & Cieri 2007).

Industry analysts anticipates forecast projections for electronic components and weapon semiconductors to significantly increase. Defense Systems Inc.

Eliminating positions can negatively impact the morale of the remaining team members, who may wonder if other positions are in jeopardy. Preserving positions may leave team members underutilized with risk of skills diminishing due to the lack of use. Either way, the firm and Jim must reach a decision that is best financially suited for the organization.

This article shows how most of the companies surveyed are still not satisfied with their succession management strategy plans. There are even a small number of companies that do not have a plan in place. To be successful in implementing a succession management plan, a company should have a pool of members identified for accelerated development. The members of the pool should be clear on their responsibilities and accountabilities. It also indicates that there are phases in which members will join or drop out of the pool due to needs of the company and one’s motivations.
