The new year brings change, and with change comes uncertainties – often leading to fear, anxiety, and worry of the unknown.

If there is one thing that is for sure, change is imminent. It is the one constant on which we can count.  It can get so complex that dealers either don’t engage in it – or tell themselves they are not there yet.

We take the complexities of the planning and break it down into consumable intense focus areas. We call this the Succession Matrix®, and these key areas build business value today and into the future, while achieving your succession goals:

  1. Owner Motivation & Perspective
  2. Personal Financial Planning
  3. Business Structuring
  4. Business Performance
  5. Strategic Planning
  6. Leadership and Management Continuity
  7. Management Synergy and Teamwork
  8. Successor Identification and Preparation
  9. Family Governance and Family Dynamics

As we enter into this new year of change, consider these key areas which significantly impact each other.
