Beyond the Bench: Succession Planning and Workforce Continuity in Utility Resilience

Date: Thursday, June 11th, 2026
Time: 2 – 3 PM ET

**This is a complimentary webinar.**


As utilities face an aging workforce, evolving risks, and increasing operational complexity, succession planning has become a critical component of organizational resilience. In this webinar, business continuity leaders Corey Mulryan (Exelon) and Usman Rahman (Hydro One) will discuss how utilities are preparing for workforce transitions, preserving institutional knowledge, and ensuring critical roles can be filled when key personnel depart unexpectedly.

The conversation will explore practical approaches to identifying successors, developing second- and third-tier leadership depth, cross-training employees, and integrating workforce continuity into broader resilience strategies. Attendees will gain insights into how leading utilities are building sustainable programs that strengthen both operational readiness and long-term organizational resilience.
