This Succession Planning online training course explores the process of identifying and developing new leaders who can replace old leaders when they retire or move on.

In the first module, we will discuss how to decide what exit strategy is best for you, how to replace yourself in the business, and how to identify your transition objectives.

In the second module, you will begin the important process of valuing your business. First, you must identify the factors that drive the value of your business. Second, if, like most business owners, you don't already know the approximate value of your business, you must choose a method of valuing it.

In this last module, you will examine strategies for getting the most for your business when the time comes to sell.
