Build your highly effective owners' team.
The Design for Succession program gives you clarity and alignment on the vision for your business and starts building the foundation upon which to make it come to life.
Take the first step towards a more resilient, valuable and sale-ready business. A step towards realising the value of a lifetime of effort.
Alignment on vision.
|
You'll produce a vision that all owners feel authentically connected to. A valuable vision that can be communicated with impact. Your vision will be a living asset, sufficiently explicit so that others in the business can confidently make strategic decisions to bring it to life. It will contain enough detail to truly inform your business' true purpose and values. |
Effective ownership
You will have the right people on the owners' team to ensure high performance, and you'll have clarity on the right advisors to support this team.
You'll implement a proven framework, ensuring your owners' team operates at its best. Strong in:
- Trust & psych safety
- Aligned purpose & values
- Effective stewardship
- Clarity of roles
- Meaningful progress
- High accountability
Understand your design.
You'll understand the high-level design of the business and the three levels of accountability that exists in any organisation. Accountability at the:
- Owner and Director level
- Strategic leadership level
- Operational level.
You will have certainty on the right ownership team and their accountabilities.
You'll have decided on the right leadership team to steward the business and the accountabilities they will hold.
Enable excellent leadership.
You'll understand the distinct work required by the organisational leadership team, and how leading strategy and culture differs from the work of ownership and operational leadership.
You'll have nominated the right leaders for your business and understand why they will be successful in the role.
You'll have created the environment for them to succeed, and as an owners' team you'll actively support their development in the role and their execution of your vision.
