Why I picked it
Manager Edge Agent now covers succession, to help spot strong performers with leadership potential, and draws on check-in summaries and questionnaire answers.
Where it helps
A talent team agrees how managers may use answers to "who could we promote?" before switching on the 26D version.
What to do now
- Decide how managers may use its succession answers, and tell them.
- Create your own agent from the preconfigured workflow.
- Check managers have Access Touchpoints by Manager and only see their own teams.
- Ask a succession question for a test team and check whether the answer is something a manager should rely on alone.
Watch out: Oracle says it doesn't make employment decisions, but promotion questions about named people need clear rules.
