Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Can your business run without you?For many successful business owners, that question is harder to answer than expected.Alex Romero spent twenty-two years building Northstar Construction from a second mortgage and a used pickup truck into a respected $64-million company. He knows every number, approves every major decision, holds the key client relationships, protects his people, and solves the problems.Until his body forces him to confront the question he has spent years avoiding.After collapsing at an airport gate, Alex wakes up in a hospital bed to hear his wife ask: "If this business can't run for one day without you, how does it run when you're gone for good?"That question begins a year-long reckoning with business succession planning, leadership transition, founder dependence, exit planning, and life after business ownership.With the help of Dave Gordon, an exit planning consultant who has walked this road himself, Alex begins examining the company he built and the role he has created for himself inside it. He discovers that preparing a company for the future requires more than financial success. Decisions have to move without the founder. Leadership has to carry real authority. Critical knowledge has to be documented. The organization needs enough depth to function when the owner is no longer in the room.Then comes the real test.Alex steps away from Northstar for one full week with no approvals, no exceptions, and no rescue calls.The company must prove it can stand on its own.Exit by Design is a business parable for owners who have spent years building something valuable and are beginning to think about what comes next. Through Alex's story, Dave Seitter and Kelli Watson explore the personal and business questions involved in succession planning, business continuity, leadership development, owner independence, and creating a meaningful life beyond the company.Readers will consider questions such as: How dependent is your company on you personally?Could your leadership team make major decisions without your approval?What knowledge, relationships, and responsibilities still live primarily with you?What kind of life are you preparing to enter when your role in the business changes?A successful exit begins long before a company is sold or leadership changes hands. It begins by creating a business capable of succeeding without the person who built it.Can your business run without you?Let's design it so it can. This item is printed on demand.
