Things you should know:
According to the Small Business Administration “over 40% of privately-owned companies will transition in the next 5 years and the primary reason for failure is a lack of planning.” This 1 hour workshop is designed to help business owners achieve more successful transitions, such as changes in ownership and management.
Succession Planning is an unfamiliar challenge for most business owners especially when family is involved. Having a plan in place can be extraordinarily valuable in relieving the uncertainties caused by not knowing how to proceed or what impact succession can have on employees, family relationships and even your own financial security.
This Business Transition and Succession Planning Workshop, led by Greg Lewis from the Tennessee Center for Family Business will provide valuable educational information to help business owners identify actions to begin minimizing their businesses’ risks, increasing value and improving their transition outcomes. Workshop participants will learn what transition readiness is, why it matters and how to improve their personal and business outcomes.
