Podcasts about succession plan

Most law firm owners build a business that depends entirely on them—then wonder why no one wants to buy it.  In this episode, we talk with Victoria Collier, founder of Quid Pro Quo, about how to build a firm that's not only profitable, but truly sellable. Victoria shares what she learned selling her own estate planning and elder law firm after 18 years—and how she now helps other lawyers do the same.  You'll learn what buyers actually look for (hint: it's not just revenue), why your firm needs to run without you, and how a shift in mindset can create more freedom and future value. Victoria also shares surprising truths about law firm sales—like the possibility of getting cash upfront—and how AI is quickly becoming a key part of due diligence for buyers and sellers alike.     Listen to our other episodes on the selling your practice:  #369: Selling Your Practice, with Tom Lenfestey Apple | Spotify |  Lawyerist  #326: A Succession Plan for Your Law Practice, with Tom Lenfestey Apple | Spotify | Lawyerist    Have thoughts about today's episode?

A carefully planned CEO exit unraveled and what came next reshaped how one founder leads for good.   When Chris Schwalbach stepped away from the CEO seat at AVL Growth Partners, he had a clear plan, a strong successor, and years of preparation behind him. But even with all that in place, something didn't sit right. The business started to wobble, and Chris found himself wondering if he'd made a mistake. What do you do when the leadership transition you spent years building starts to crack? How do you know when it's time to step back in?   Joining Sarah Lockwood, Chris shares the real story behind his succession planning journey, from the slow handoff to the unexpected return, and what he learned about himself in the process. He talks openly about the shame he felt stepping back in, the inner work that helped him move through it, and the version of leadership he brings to the table now. If you're thinking about founder exit planning or wrestling with what it means to let go, this episode offers a thoughtful look at what happens when plans shift and perspective deepens.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Chris Schwalbach's CEO Exit and Return 02:06 Founding AVL Growth Partners and the Original Vision 04:07 Hitting Growth Ceilings and Planning a Leadership Transition 10:05 The Inner Journey: Failure, Trust, and Self-Doubt 17:12 Becoming CEO 2.0: Leading with Clarity and Confidence 22:00 Managing Team Expectations During a Leadership Transition 28:10 Reflecting on Progress: Using the Gap and the Gain 30:07 Personal Habits That Support Founder Mental Health 37:47 Lessons in Succession Planning and Self-Trust   Links Conscious Entrepreneur Previous Episode with Chris Schwalbach: https://consciousentrepreneur.us/chris-schwalbach-the-conscious-handover-embracing-change-at-the-top   Connect with The Conscious Entrepreneur: Website: http://www.consciousentrepreneur.us  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/conscious-entrepreneur/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conscious_entrepreneur_summit/    Connect with Chris Schwalbach: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cschwalbach/ Website: https://avlgrowth.com/   Connect with Sarah Lockwood: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lockwoodsarah/ Website: https://hivecast.fm HiveCast.fm is a proud sponsor of The Conscious Entrepreneur Podcast.

As the Federal Reserve holds steady on the key bank lending rate, host Gene Marks says businesses might take wind with the hint that the interest rate might be cut two more times in 2025, making funding more accessible. Small businesses might soon have more accessibility to more talent, as big companies are looking at making labor cuts. The local economy might take a hit with job cuts, but it does ease labor pressures for some. Also, a recent survey shows that many older owners are willing to sell their business but do not have a succession plan – 54%, in fact, lack one. Meanwhile, Millennial and Gen Z buyers are out there, so the time might be right.

Send us a textAre you ready to grapple with the new NCUA requirement that every credit union have an up to date succession plan that covers both senior executives and board members?The good news: you're not required to have a written plan until January 1, 2026.The bad news: if you don't have a plan by then, or if your plan falls far short of NCUA's expectations, the credit union can be written up by an examiner.On the show is Jeff Paille, partner in The Bonadio Group's Assurance Division, who offers a primer on what every credit union needs to know about this NCUA requirement.And he also talks about what will happen if you simply tell the examiner you haven't gotten a plan together.Incidentally, although the NCUA explicitly flagged mergers triggered by a lack of a succession plan  as a prompt for this new requirement, Paille says that a common succession plan at many credit unions is in fact merger.Listen up.Like what you are hearing?

David Grau Jr. is the president of Succession Resource Group, an advisory consulting and valuation business based out of Oregon that serves independent financial advisors with RIAs and broker-dealers. What sets David apart is his two decades of experience supporting financial advisory firms, which has allowed him to identify best practices for founders and successors navigating increasingly complex internal succession plans. This is especially valuable as founders face growing challenges due to frequent, high-valuation offers from private equity-backed acquirers. Listen in as David shares best practices for preparing firms for internal succession, including establishing defined career tracks, organizing business metrics, and breaking ownership transitions into manageable tranches to ease financial commitments for successors. He discusses why internal successions remain viable—despite the allure of high valuations from private equity-backed buyers—highlighting how these deals often include challenging growth targets and less favorable terms hidden in the fine print. David also explains how preparing for internal succession can actually boost external valuation and why founders may find greater satisfaction in leaving a lasting legacy through their firm by transitioning it to internal successors.

One of the most vulnerable times in an organization's life is when it is transitioning from its current senior leader and passing the baton to the next one. In today's episode John and Jim explore a high-level plan for a senior leadership transition. They answer two of the most frequent questions pastors ask when being coached through the leadership transition journey and then outline an example of a succession plan.

Rick Buoncore, executive chairman of MAI Capital Management, did what fewer than 30 percent of RIAs have done: created a formal, written succession plan co-signed by successors who are ready and willing to take over the $30 billion (AUM) organization. Meanwhile, the 68-year-old Buoncore, who has no intention of retiring, explains how the new succession plan addresses client priorities and his own professional goal. (10/2024)

A court room in the US State of Nevada provided the setting for the recent hearing between media mogul Rupert Murdoch and his children, over who will inherit his empire on the 93 year old's death. The succession battle, worthy of the TV drama Succession, which was partly inspired by the Murdoch dynasty, was played out behind closed doors and it's unlikely that the decision, when it comes, will be made available to the public. Murdoch's News Corp owns hundreds of newspapers and media outlets around the world. It includes the right-leaning Fox News in the US, which gave Donald Trump a major platform in the run-up to the 2016 Presidential election, as well as widely read newspapers like the Sun in the UK. Speculation over who is most likely to take control of the multi-billion dollar business currently centres around the eldest son Lachlan Murdoch, the sibling most closely aligned to his father in terms of their vision for the future. But at this point the outcome all depends on whether legally such a takeover can happen. So, on this week's Inquiry, we're asking ‘What's the succession plan for Murdoch's empire?'

Shoot us a Text.Welcome to Tuesday! Paul's hanging out at Vincue Unleashed, Kyle's at his desk and we've got news to talk about, like how the US's new rule on Chinese software in cars could affect OEMs, how Stellantis is going about its CEO search, and how Google is making Gemini a part of all Workspace accounts.Show Notes with links:The U.S. Commerce Department is considering a new rule that could block automakers like General Motors and Ford from importing vehicles made in China. The move is part of a broader effort to curb the use of Chinese technology, particularly software and hardware, due to national security concerns.GM's Buick Envision and Ford's Lincoln Nautilus, both assembled in China, would be directly impacted and the rule could also affect other automakers, including Volvo and BYD.GM sold about 22,000 Envisions, and Ford sold 17,500 Nautilus crossovers in the U.S. during the first half of 2024.Automakers would need to move production outside of China or apply for specific authorizations to continue selling affected models.Liz Cannon from the Commerce Department said, "Any vehicle manufactured in China and sold in the U.S. would fall within the prohibitions."Stellantis announced it has begun the search for a successor to CEO Carlos Tavares, with his contract expiring in January 2026. While Tavares has led the company since 2021 and made it highly profitable, recent issues in North America are driving the company to refocus.The CEO search is routine, but the company faces pressure due to declining North American sales and profits.In response, Stellantis is slashing vehicle inventories by 100,000 units by early 2025 and has already reduced 40,000 vehicles.CFO Natalie Knight said inventory and pricing discipline are key strategies to weather the EV transition, with some models, like the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Compass, seeing price cuts.Tavares has implemented aggressive cost-cutting measures, including job cuts and a plan to source 80% of parts from low-cost countries by 2028.“We are living in very difficult times where there are going to be winners and losers, and a lot about being the winner is being the last man standing," Knight saidGoogle is making its Gemini AI a central part of its Workspace productivity suite, a move that could significantly boost the chatbot's user base across various industries.Gemini AI will now be included in Workspace Business, Enterprise, and Frontline plans starting in Q4, eliminating the need for a separate Gemini add-on, streamlining AI use for Workspace customers.Google assures that Gemini won't use organizational data to train its AI model and complies with enterprise-grade privacy standards like SOC 1/2/3 and ISO 27701.Workspace Administrators will manage data storage for generated responses and user prompts, adding control and security.Google is also introducing the "Security Advisor" tool to help IT administrators protect againstHosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

The Milwaukee Bucks are starting and relying heavily on 36-year-old Brook Lopez as they look to contend for a championship with Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard. Why haven't the Bucks found a Lopez successor yet? That's the question Ti Windisch and Rohan Katti covered on the latest Gyro Step, walking through how difficult it's been league-wide to find diamonds in the rough at the center position and why the Bucks are probably better suited to replace Brook once he's actually gone. Ti and Rohan then looked at the Bucks current two-way players and Exhibit 10 contracts who will play a lot with the Herd this season, including three centers, although none of them poised to help Milwaukee at the NBA level anytime soon.
