Dayforce Succession Planning will provide organizations with real-time data and insights designed to help employers find the right people within their companies to fill key roles in the event of expected or unexpected departures hrtech news.
In today’s competitive market, organizations must prioritize their talent management efforts to attract, retain, and grow engaged high-performing teams. Succession planning can enable organizations to support business continuity, increase employee engagement, and reduce employee turnover.
“The battle for top talent is unrelenting, competition is fierce, and organizations need to be prudent with how they are managing their own talent,” said Lisa Sterling, Chief People and Culture Officer, Ceridian. “Without an ongoing discussion around proper succession planning, organizations can be left scrambling to fill the void when key team members depart. I believe real-time, fluid succession planning is absolutely crucial to the success of any organization hrtech.”
“Succession Planning is more than ensuring adequate bench strength for an organization’s critical roles. When this strategic HCM process is executed well, it leads to improved employee engagement, retention, and clarity of mission across the entire workforce,” stated Steve Goldberg, VP and Research Director of HCM, Ventana Research. “Employers that value their employees’ career and development interests, and have full visibility into employee potential, tend to become market leaders; and Ceridian’s new succession planning offering should help many customers achieve these and other key aspects of their talent management agenda.”

- Track key traits and succession information in an employee profile to help identify where employees are in their career path
