What would happen to your business if you had to retire tomorrow?
Many small businesses are dependent on the owner, so if you want to be able to retire and/or position your company to be able to sell - you’ll need strategic forethought and action built into the structure of your organization. Having a strategy for developing people who can move up when key employees leave is critical to the long term success of a business.
The trouble is, many businesses owners only start thinking about this when they are nearing the transition. Building on-going succession planning into the structure of a business will not only position the business for success when transition approaches, but it will allow the business to grow and attract top talent in the meantime. It will also allow the company to be strategic if the goal is to sell.

Are you excited for retirement but have a few fears and concerns? Many people think that retirement is just about getting ready financially. Although many pre-retirees are concerned about their finances, money isn’t the only thing on their minds.

Psychological and emotional factors (aka the non-financial stuff) plays a BIG role in a successful retirement. In fact, research has shown that almost half of people entering retirement struggle with the transition into their post-career life.
But it’s not all doom and gloom! You can decrease your concerns and apprehension about retirement by preparing yourself psychologically.
