Abstract

Trying to design a proper model and compare different components of successors training for a desirable condition in Iranian Water Resources Management Company, this research is aimed at providing an answer to the question whether there is a difference between the existing and desirable position of successors training in this organization, and which of the components of succession receives more priority. This is a survey research whose statistical population includes the personnel and human resource experts of the company and subsidiary companies including human resource managers and responsible experts. The sample includes 185 based on Cochran Formula. The findings indicated that the existing and desirable situations of the Iranian Water Resources Management Company are different in terms of all of the components of succession. Furthermore, the findings of the component rankings indicated that in the present situation, "individual performance evaluation" receives the highest priority, and "evaluation of successor planning" takes the lowest priority. In the desired situation, "filling the training gap" stands at the highest rank, and "evaluation of planning successors training" is placed at the lowest position.
