Pretend you are an executive planning to retire in 12 months and you have identified a successor within your organization. Discuss the steps you would take to influence the organization and other stakeholders to improve the chances of your designated successor assuming your position.
Initial Post Guidelines
Initial posts should be based upon peer-reviewed, evidence-based literature. In your post, include at least one APA-formatted in-text citation and the accompanying, congruent APA-formatted reference. Your source can be a course textbook, assigned reading, or other scholarly source and meet the requirements according to the Faculty Expectations Response Guidelines.
Response Guidelines
Respond to the posts of other learners according to the Faculty Expectations Response Guidelines. If possible, respond to one learner who has a perspective, background, or goals that are similar to yours and then to one learner whose perspective, background, or goals are different.
Peer responses should be substantive and must include one peer-reviewed source (in current APA style) that aligns with the discussion thread. You may feel free to add an additional source that is new or provides a completely different perspective. “I agree” and “Thanks for sharing your insights” are examples of unacceptable responses that do not contribute content for enhanced learning. The goal is quality, substantive feedback that demonstrates higher-order critical thinking and evaluation of peers’ initial posts.
