Introduction / Rationale

Due to the “baby boom” after World War II, many organizations are facing an upcoming increase in retirements. Similarly, most organizations have employee demographics where there are very few people to fill the 10-15 year gap between baby boomers and the Gen Y population. Organizations are faced with a difficult dilemma: is it wiser to wait for the wave of retirements and see how it plays out, or is it better to take immediate action?

The Knowledge Transfer and Continuity course ensures that unique and critical knowledge/capability is not lost during retirements or other workforce related changes (e.g. promotions, mergers and acquisitions, divestitures, job rotations, attrition, etc.). The four-step process is award-winning and externally validated. And, it comes with a financial calculation for Return-On-Investment for organizations seeking that important metric.

Audience

This CKS is designed for managers and leaders that can influence their organization to prepare for upcoming loss of unique and critical knowledge/capability. Often, these individuals are Human Resources leaders, managers, or business partners. Line managers, program/project managers, and functional leads will also find value and immediate impact in this course.

Learning Objectives

  • Learn and practice the 4-step Knowledge Transfer and Continuity process
  • Practice the 4-step Knowledge Transfer and Continuity process

Finally, you will also receive helpful and impactful feedback from your peers and instructor with regard to your personal facilitation skills.
