STRATEGIC EARLY WARNING NETWORK

Succession Planning is as Easy as 1, 2, 3……..or is it?

Your father started this machine shop. You remember being allowed to go to work with him sometimes when you were barely tall enough to see what was on the tables. “Don’t touch anything,” he would admonish. And you would keep a distance, all the while itching to get your hands on the tools and machinery.

Later, you would spend time after school, on weekends and in the summer working at your father’s shop. You geared your education toward technical classes so that you could make incremental improvements to your Dad’s legacy. And, when the time came for him to retire, you took over the business and grew it from a small, three or four person shop to managing 30 or more employees at a time. You have seen the shop through good times and bad. Now it is time for you to retire and pass it to the next generation. Maybe.
