Succession planning is a process designed to ensure that individuals are recruited and developed to fill key roles in organizations. In this highly informative and easy-to-read dissertation, Dr. Keith E. Robinson provides extensive background on what defines effective succession planning, its importance in today’s workforce, and the immediacy with which it needs to be integrated into the court systems. Using mixed methods research, Dr. Robinson reveals the perceptions and attitudes of court employees and their desire for a structured, systematic, and well-defined succession plan and provides insights on how to implement such practices strategically and effectively. Evaluation of Succession Planning to Improve Court Employees’ Career Development Opportunities is an excellent resource for human resource departments, executives, managers, or anyone looking to develop their understanding of succession planning and career and leadership development.

The purpose of succession-related practices is to ensure that there are ready replacements for key positions in an organization so that turnover will not negatively affect the organization's performance. CCL first published an annotated bibliography on succession planning in 1995. That bibliography focused primarily on the link between succession and management development. This bibliography has a broader scope; it is an update and expansion, commensurate with the maturation of this area of practice. In addition to linkages between succession and development, we also consider representative literature on CEO succession, high potentials, and succession systems and architecture. It is hoped that those who use this bibliography will find resources that help them in conceptualizing, planning, and implementing effective succession systems in their organizations.
