Abstract

Family businesses are important for the global economy, and therefore the transfer of ownership across generations is critical to their survival. This research aimed to determine leadership efficacy in succession planning amongst school leaders in private school organisations. The research explored the stated objectives through a qualitative research methodology.  The research used face to face semi structured interviews to generate the research data. The result argues for the need for effective succession planning and indicates that a planned succession can lead to a positive impact on school organisations overall performance while an unplanned succession can disrupt a private school organisation.
