Fast Tracking Mission-Wide Transition
Over the last two years, EnCompass and USAID Mission leadership have co-led the design and implementation of two multiday, in-person Strategic Transition Planning workshops. Informed by lessons learned, this guide (also available here) outlines the benefits of thoughtful transitions that position incoming staff and their colleagues for success, and how Missions can tailor the transition design to their unique contexts.
This guide from EnCompass complements USAID's recently launched Knowledge Management and Organizational Learning (KMOL) Policy and the Knowledge Retention and Transfer (KRT) Toolkit.
Knowledge sharing, relationships, and overcommunication are key to a successful staff transition. A smooth staff transition allows for agile continuity of the Agency’s lifesaving work.
