Overview

This interactive session will delve into the key aspects of business succession—from shareholder transitions to board and CEO succession planning.  

Gain insights on how to navigate common pitfalls, mitigate risks, and maximise the rewards of a well-executed transition.  

We’ll discuss: 

  • Shareholder succession: Strategies for privately held companies to ensure continuity and stability. 
  • Board succession planning: Building a strong, future-ready board to guide your organisation. 
  • CEO & C-Suite transitions: Best practices for leadership continuity and avoiding disruption. 

The session will also include a Business Succession Readiness Assessment, a great tool to see how ready your business is for succession or leadership transition. 

Whether you're a business owner, board member or executive leader, this session will equip you with actionable insights to tackle succession planning with confidence. 

Directors' Deep Dive events are smaller interactive discussion-style sessions where you will be encouraged to ask questions and actively contribute your perspectives.
