Welcome to your Leadership Continuity Assessment

What happens to your organization when a key person leaves—expected or unexpectedly?

The Leadership Continuity Assessment helps you identify where your organization is prepared for that moment and where it may be vulnerable. It examines critical positions, essential knowledge, interim coverage, decision-making authority, service gaps, successor readiness, and the time required to restore full capability.

The value isn't simply in the score. It is in identifying what is working, what could fail, and what needs to be fixed before a departure creates an operational or service problem.

Use the assessment to establish a clear picture of your organization's leadership continuity—and a practical starting point for strengthening it.

How to Complete the Assessment

For each statement, select the response that best describes your organization today.

1 — Not in Place
2 — Weak / Significant Gap
3 — Adequate / Somewhat in Place
4 — Strong
5 — Fully in Place / Tested

Don't rate what you intend to do.

Rate what you could demonstrate today.

Where your answer is "Not in Place" or "Weak / Significant Gap", briefly note the concern, example, or evidence behind your rating. Those responses are particularly important.
