Succession Ecologist — A civic strategist who helps long-lived societies renew themselves when power, property, prestige, and institutional control remain concentrated in the hands of those who have had centuries to accumulate them.

Key responsibilities include designing turnover systems, advising on inheritance and office limits, creating pathways for younger cohorts to enter leadership, and maintaining enough social circulation for a civilization to keep adapting rather than calcifying.
