Your successor is not a telepath. Draw a picture of the business and what it does. Write a business plan as if you were just going to start the business, and have your successor help draft it. Break down the transition period into three year periods, and plan on 90 day time horizons in each period. Families are unique.
People are unique.
Communities can have opportunities for improvement which you can set up to the benefit of your family. But none of it will happen without planning. Unless you take the time to craft a legacy for your family and community, you will lose the opportunity to do much good, and much may happen that you would not have wished to happen. A good plan requires professional involvement at all levels, and is done with the assistance of a planning team of experts who will help you execute a plan to accomplish your goals. Clear thinking leads to right action.
