Onkohan tälle suomalaista termiä?

“Bench strength” refers to the capabilities and readiness of potential successors to move into key professional and leadership positions. The term comes from baseball, where it refers to a team's lineup of highly skilled players who can step in when a player is hurt or replaced.

In the business setting, bench strength is critically important because organizations continuously go through turnover, restructuring, and changes in business strategy. Whenever a critical person leaves (whether in leadership, management or line operations), the organization should have a "ready successor" or plan for replacement in order to avoid business interruption.
