When times are good make sure in any practice there is a good partnership/shareholders agreement that includes clauses that predict what may happen in the future. Conflict can be an inevitability of lack of planning when communication breaks down. #FamilyBusiness

Never assume that your ideal successor is ready and willing to take the job. Have the conversation early and put plans in place that will ensure the business' survival in the long run. #MondayHumor #FamilyBusiness #Succession #SuccessionStrength @inseadfb @familylegacyadv
