Role Handover and Transition Plan

Checklist

Hand over work cleanly when someone leaves or changes roles.

The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.

Create a handover plan for when [PERSON] leaves or changes from [ROLE]. Successor or covering person: [SUCCESSOR]. Departure date: [DEPARTURE_DATE]. Main responsibilities, projects, and relationships: [RESPONSIBILITIES].

Produce a checklist organized by timing and owner, with boxes:
FOUR TO TWO WEEKS BEFORE
[ ] Inventory of recurring tasks with frequency, steps, tools, and deadlines
[ ] Inventory of active projects with status, next actions, and risks
[ ] List of key contacts (internal, customers, suppliers) with context and preferences
[ ] Locations of files, passwords to be transferred through the approved password manager (never in the handover document), and account ownership
[ ] Decisions pending and authority levels
FINAL TWO WEEKS
[ ] Shadowing sessions with notes
[ ] Introductions to contacts, in person or by message
[ ] Recorded walk-throughs of complex tasks
[ ] Open issues list reviewed with the manager
LAST WEEK AND AFTER
[ ] Access removal or transfer on the last day, including shared accounts
[ ] Out-of-office and email forwarding set up
[ ] Check-in with the successor at 2 weeks and 6 weeks
[ ] Exit conversation and knowledge gaps list

Include a handover document template with sections and a quality test: could the successor run the next month using only this document? Add a risk list of knowledge that exists only in the person's head.
