The Developing new managers and deputies guide provides practical steps to identify, develop, and retain future leaders in adult social care.

 

With 10,000 registered managers due to retire in the next 15 years, succession planning is key to ensuring that your service continues to provide well-led, consistent quality care, both today and in the future.

 

The guide includes practical tools such as checklists, interview templates, and scenario-based assessments to help adult social care providers develop effective succession planning strategies.

 

The content is shaped around the Care Workforce Pathway for deputy managers and registered managers, informed by what adult social care employers highlighted are the essential values, behaviours, skills and experience needed by these rewarding but highly demanding roles.

 

Key topics include:

• Shaping your succession plan: benefits, risks, and creating a structured approach.
• Identifying emerging talent: practical ways to spot and support potential leaders
• Planning development opportunities: aligning skills, values, and behaviours with leadership needs
• Developing leadership experience: champion roles, mentoring, networking, and training pathways
• Recruiting new managers: interview questions, assessments, and values-based selection

Please note a print edition of this guide will be sent to current Skills for Care registered manager members who renew their membership between April 2025 and March 2026.
