Strengths of the Acceleration Pools Model: The acceleration pools meet the
needs of 21st century organizations and managers much better than older
models of succession management. The strengths of this model are:
• Acceleration pools are significantly less time-consuming for managers,
who can dispense with the annual replacement-planning forms.
• Putting the responsibility for record keeping on the people being
developed, and providing them with forms to guide their discussions and
planning maximizes the relationship between pool members, managers
and mentors.
• The four sets of skill assessment ensures the ability of targeted
employees so that, senior executives can select specific descriptors for
their organization.
• Each acceleration pool member keeps a Career Development Portfolio,
which includes his or her Development Priority List, an up-to-date
personal information form, completed performance appraisal forms, and
completed and in-progress Development Action Forms.
• Pool members can meet with their current managers and their mentors
to pin down the specifics of how to develop the competencies, job
challenges and organizational knowledge suggested by the Executive
Resource Board while also accomplishing the objectives of their job
assignment.
• In this model pool members understand the purpose of the assignment
or training and its potential value to their development, so they are
more likely to be enthusiastic and fully committed to its success.
