Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: In the post-COVID era, many organizations have recognized the need to revise their leadership hiring practices. Previous research introduced the concept of Intentional Pathway Planning (IPP) as a more effective alternative to traditional succession planning. This paper explores the implementation of IPP through qualitative research, including interviews and surveys with companies currently using the approach. Findings reveal that IPP offers more efficient and adaptive strategies for filling leadership vacancies, contributing to organizational success and employee retention.
