Key Takeaways

1) Following a previous leader is challenging simply because most people do not like change.

2) One of the most critical tasks for the new leader is to take the time to build a relational connection with the new organization. Position-oriented leadership will not produce positive results.

3) In succession planning at the new job, it’s paramount to begin almost immediately to start identifying your potential replacement.

4) Great leaders understand the need to allow the organization the time to work through the grieving process over the former leader. Wise leaders know that this can’t be rushed.
