A Convention Speech Perfect for Spouses
No one pays a higher price for business succession planning gone awry than a surviving spouse. Tom’s keen awareness of this fact is what makes him such an engaging and relevant speaker at industry association and franchise events. Indeed, Tom’s keynote is perfect for the entire family.
The current generation of aging business owners will live much longer than their parents did. This fact is seriously affecting modern succession plans. Today, the idea that 95-year-old business owners will maintain control while their 70-year-old children manage the business is already proving problematic. With business owners living longer, it is common for three and sometimes four generations to be working in a business at the same time. This new dynamic is creating profound new challenges and leading many to destroy their wealth and family relationships.
When business owners embrace the idea that businesses are meant to be sold in an orderly way, succession plans become effortless. Hire Tom to speak at your next convention or industry event and introduce your member firms or franchisees to a refreshing new message on a subject as old as business itself.
