Question

What if I will not be meeting my successor? Are there things I should be mindful of?

Community Answer

I'm in the same situation right now. I made a list of all ongoing processes and assigned people on my team to each, in discussion with my superior. In this case, the direct handover requires the focused involvement of other colleagues in all meetings and appointments. Written documentation should focus on processes that are complex and vulnerable to mistakes, rather than just status reports.

Question

Is it possible to handover when one was dismissed without a notice period?

Community Answer

It depends. If you request for time to handover properly, you may be permitted to do that. It depends on the circumstances and the company's policies.
