Passing a business from one generation to the next involves transferring both ownership and management of the business from one individual to another. Transferring ownership of the family business assets can be fraught with emotional land mines and the possibility of damaged relationships.
The seven-step Succession Planning Process defines not only how to begin, but also important actions to take throughout the entire transition. Steps include: Establish a Timeline, Establish a Planning Team, Select a Successor, Develop a Written Plan, Communicate the Plan, Plan for Retirement, and Enjoy the Future.

The future success of a family business depends on the ability of the family to transfer management to the next generation, but only 1/3 of family businesses successfully transition. How will you make sure your farm or ranch successfully passes to the next generation?

Where Are We with
Our Management Succession?

A legacy is the summation of a lifetime of achievement and the context in which that lifetime will be remembered. A legacy is not just money but a reputation, what was accomplished, and the difference a person makes in the world as they pass through.

Mentoring is a relationship in which a more experienced or knowledgeable person guides a less experienced or less knowledgeable person through an activity or event in their life. While the mentor can be older or younger than the mentee, they must have a specific expertise which qualifies them.
This approach is similar to coaching but in coaching the goals and the plan of action are often set by the coach. In a mentoring relationship, the mentee sets the goals and formulates the plan under the guidance of the mentor.
