27: Succession Planning With Joe Seetoo
Joe Seetoo is Senior Vice President, Partner & Wealth Advisor at Morton Wealth. He joins Nana this week on Build Value By Choice to give his advice on how you can effectively plan for the succession of your business. Also find out his thoughts on internal transition versus generation transition, how to assess your strengths and weaknesses, and why it is important to find your North Star.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Is your business a lifestyle business or one with more transferable value that outgrows you as an individual. Making sure that you are not entangled in your business will help you when it comes to exiting. As a leader you should be building the company from the outside, planning and putting people in the right place. If you are the one doing all the things, your business loses value when you leave.
When you’re planning your exit, you need to consider the potential ramifications on existing management if you are looking to go with internal transition or a generational transition to your children.
If you can optimize the 8 essential parts of the business, then you will find that your business as a whole is now running optimally. If you’re at this stage exit planning is easy because investors will see you as a very attractive prospect.
Get a clear idea on what your North Star is. If you don’t know where you’re going then you’re going to go down the wrong path.
Assess your strengths and weaknesses on a personal level. Do you know your cash flow situation? The more you know then the easier you can make a plan that covers for all eventualities.
