For your initial post:
If you have not done so already, read the section of your textbook that covers succession planning. In the 8th edition, you can find this section on pages 432-442.
Review the list of required questions and other examples in the boxes below.
Brainstorm a list of at least ten additional questions about succession planning that you might want to ask. Write down every question that comes to mind. You can evaluate the relevance, appropriateness, and semantics of each question later.
Choose at least three questions from your brainstorming list that you think are most relevant to this assignment, and transform them into clear and concise interview questions. The final list will include the five required questions listed below and three of your questions for a total of eight questions.
Use the steps below to help you edit and proofread your questions. You can edit the five required questions to reflect your writing and speaking styles.
Transform close-ended questions into open-ended questions.
Read your questions aloud and imagine how others might interpret each one. If needed, clarify what it is you are asking. Do you want a description or explanation? Do you want a specific example? Do you want advice?
Add follow-up questions that could help gather additional information during the interview.
Ensure each question is relevant to human resource management, training and development, or succession planning.
Ensure each question is clear and concise.
Correct all grammatical errors.
Organize your list in a logical order. Also, include the most important questions first, and place the questions that you could skip, if time runs out, at the end of the list.
Post a bulleted list of 8 interview questions. You may include additional questions, but know that you may not have enough time to ask all of them.
Once you post your list, you will be able to see your classmates’ posts. Although you cannot copy and paste their questions, you can review their lists and note any ideas that come to mind or changes you want to make to your list.
