Succession planning and exit planning are terms that are often
used interchangeably. However, each one is a vital aspect of
business planning that works to achieve different outcomes. So,
what is the difference? In this episode, I take a closer look at
succession planning vs. exit planning. I also discuss their
benefits, why and how business owners should use them, and when to
begin planning.

- (10:41) Facilitating a Sale Without Making an Exit
Our Favorite Quotes:
"Unlike reactive hiring practices, the succession
planning process is well-planned-out. It is a long-term
procedure of building several internal pools of qualified
candidates who are able to fill vacancies." - Justin
Goodbread
"Don't make the mistake of thinking you can wait until you're ready to hand the business over to the next group of leaders." - Justin Goodbread
