Statistics on the success rate of family business successions are shocking. Why is that?

Studies tell us that 85 % of failed transitions happen because of poor communication, mistrust, and a lack of planning. That can be avoided.

Further statistics tell us that nearly 2/3rds of business owners are not familiar with all of their transition options. Ouch. Profoundly, 75% regret selling the business a year later. That’s motivated me to create change and awareness.

Where do you start when it comes to succession planning and how can you tell if the next generation is ready and worthy? Are you thinking about retirement or what’s next?

  • Are you feeling like the family dynamics are getting in the way of business performance?

Happy families and businesses.
