Succession planning is ideal to pick out the talent pool for development. <\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/div>\n<div><span><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<div><span>When looking at relocating, companies should consult with their top talent to see if this is really necessary to move their top performers or could their roles be carried out in a different way eg incorporating flexible working opportunities including home-based working.\u00a0 This can benefit the company as well by not paying out huge relocation or redundancy costs to all concerned.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><span><br
