👉 Departure engineering refers to the systematic process of planning, designing, and executing the transition of personnel, assets, and operations from a project or organization to a new environment, such as moving from one team to another, relocating to a different location, or transitioning to a new phase of a project. This process involves identifying the need for departure, assessing the impact on remaining team members and processes, developing strategies to retain key talent, and ensuring a smooth handover of responsibilities. Effective departure engineering minimizes disruption, maintains project continuity, and supports the well-being of departing employees by providing clear communication, support, and opportunities for knowledge transfer.
