The Top 5 Questions You Need to Answer for Your Employees

Coach Amy Atherton does the bulk of the succession-related work here at ActionCOACH, and she’s noticing a disconcerting trend: Owners think you have an exit strategy through one of your employees or family members; maybe you had a conversation about it at some point over a cocktail, but then when it’s time to actually transition out, your employee balks. So you, the owner, are left with no plan, no strategy, and no financial benefit from this business you’ve spent years building.

We had what we call a BFO around this situation- that’s ActionCOACH lingo for Blinding Flash of the Obvious- we do succession planning, “what’s ahead” training, and coaching with owners to help you move through this emotion-laden stage of your business, but we haven’t done anything for your employees.

They don’t know how your business really runs; they see you putting in all kinds of hours; they don’t understand the financials; they’ve never been an owner before; and they have no idea how they would pay for your business. No wonder they balk.

Fortunately, we have a cure for this! Amy just did a free webinar for employees called “Can You Own this Company?” so your people can learn what to expect, how to make money after you’re gone, and the questions they need to ask you to make an informed decision.

The webinar was well received, so we’re going to repeat it!

Here’s the link to grab your spot or have your employees sign up. It’s Free, June 10th from 12-1 pm CST.

Imagine how much better you’ll feel knowing that you have a bona fide exit strategy that allows your employees and clients to be well taken care of!
