For some, this will mean handing the reigns to a family member. Yet for most it will be the sale of their baby." These leaders possess a lot of knowledge. After all, they were the ones who started the company, developed its systems, and grew it to the size it is today. They can be the top sales person and the go$to when a problem needs solving. Now they wish to sell and few have prepared their leadership team for life without them. This places the company at risk because without the primary decision maker at the helm, the remaining leaders arent prepared to carry on the vision and growth of the business. How will this a#ect business valuation? If you had to choose between companies in a purchase, what e#ect would leadership have on the sale?" InVision is there to help protect one of the owners most valuable assets: their business. We will work with senior management to extract the knowledge and experience needed for continued success. During the process we will work with management to align strengths, determine needed talents, and prepare the business for the demands of the transition.
