Identify the decision
Clarify what is changing, who will be involved and what a successful transition means.
Prepare for continuity, ownership transition and responsible wealth transfer.
Succession planning connects ownership, leadership, liquidity and family expectations so a transition is considered as a process rather than a single event.
The conversation on succession planning starts with identify the decision and model the liquidity. It then connects those decisions to protect continuity and document intent, so the topic can be considered in the context of the wider financial plan rather than as an isolated product or task.
