How do we make better promotion and succession decisions?

In this section

Why it’s hard

Succession means balancing present and future: who’s ready now and who can grow - two different constructs, too often judged with one tool.

Common mistakes

Succession lists built on judgement, rarely updated, never validated against data that compares candidates.

The construct to measure

Readiness Potential

Readiness (who is ready now) and potential (who can grow), measured separately and read together.

Which Quint products help

Situational tests and a behavioural interview that verify who is ready, now, for a more complex role.

The complete picture: future trajectory and current readiness in a single assessment.

Output & deliverables

A candidate potential × readiness matrix and objective, defensible grounds for every appointment.
