Leadership and successionSuccession Planning
A critical role falling vacant without a ready successor is one of the highest risks to business continuity, and it is often discovered too late.
Mijhar turns succession planning from scattered spreadsheets into a structured process: critical roles, talent review in calibration sessions, successors and readiness, and development tracking.
We deliver Succession Planning for government, semi-government, private and non-profit organisations in Riyadh, Jeddah, Makkah, Madinah, Dammam, Khobar and across Saudi Arabia and the GCC, in person or online, in Arabic and English.
