Business & Succession Planning

Development of Strategic and Succession Plans are essential to preparing a company for future growth and transition. A great Strategic Plan creates clarity and consensus, sets direction and establishes priorities. It defines your organization’s view of success and prioritizes the activities that will make this view your reality. The plan helps management teams focus on specific strategic objectives that can drive growth.

Development of three to five strategic objectives with ownership and management is the foundation of the plan and guarantees coordination throughout the company. Assessment of the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats within the company and with competitors ensures a 360-degree view within the marketplace. Your Strategic Plan is then utilized as a vehicle to assist ownership in determining a course of action for legacy transfer of the business or exit.
