Pipelines Analytics provides an organization-wide view of succession risk. Rather than reviewing individual pipelines one at a time, you can use Analytics to identify where succession risk is concentrated and how it is changing over time.
Go to Analytics > Pipelines to view Pipelines Analytics.
Understand succession risk
Succession risk represents the level of risk your organization faces if a role needs to be filled.
A pipeline can have a succession risk of:
-
Low
-
Medium
-
High
-
Undefined
Succession risk is based on the criticality of the job and its bench strength. Bench strength is scored from 1 to 10 and represents how ready your potential successors are to step into the role. A critical job with limited ready successors is more likely to have a higher succession risk. Learn more
View high succession risk over time
The high succession risk chart shows how the number of pipelines with High succession risk changes over time. Use this chart to understand whether high-risk succession situations are becoming more or less common across your organization.
Compare succession risk by job group
Succession risk can be broken down by job group.
For each job group, you can see:
-
The number of pipelines
-
The percentage of pipelines at each succession-risk level
Pipelines belonging to subgroups are included in the corresponding higher-level job group. You can also filter the results by job level. Use this view to identify areas of your organization where succession risk is concentrated.
Compare succession risk by job level
Switch to the Job level view to compare succession risk across levels.
For each level, you can see:
-
The number of pipelines
-
The percentage of pipelines at each succession-risk level
You can filter this view by job group. This can help you identify whether succession risk is concentrated at particular levels of the organization.
