The Bench Strength Summary captures the key elements for aligning people with organization needs. Five action items with
recommendations are identified:
Void: Positions with no replacements. 1. Select from talent pool. 2. Add to talent pool and accelerate development. 3. Identify
backups. 4. Begin external recruitment. 5. For key positions accelerate the process.
Surpluses: Positions with more than one replacement. 1. Redirect career paths. 2. Move high potentials quickly. 3. Job rotation
inside unit. 4. Task force assignments.
Blocking: Non-promotable managers with promotable subordinates. 1. Move incumbent or backup within one year. 2. Job
rotation outside unit. 3. Special projects.
Performance Problems: Employees not meeting expectations. 1. One more accomplishment review. 2. Focus on results and
competency improvement. 3. Terminate (consult HR department).
Superkeeper: Very accelerated career paths and compensation growth, high development investment. Formal mentor and sponsor
arrangement.
