[September 12, 2019]
The aging of owners and leaders creates one of the most complex
chapters in the life of a business. So complex that 60% opt to avoid
all or some of the issues. Succession planning for the management of
a business and the exit strategy of leaders are connected, but
different. Estate planning is not the same thing either. Yet, each
are necessary if business transition from generation to generation
is to succeed.
On September 26 at Noon CST, the University of Illinois Extension
Local Government Education webinar will feature Steven Groner,
Community and Economic Development Educator, who will share insights
and suggestions gained from advising small businesses in Handing
Off Your Business: The Future of Your Business Without You.
Groner’s workshops focus on varied planning needs such as; startup,
financial management, marketing and succession planning. Here, he is
emphasizing topics related to succession planning in response to
what has been termed “the silver tsunami” or, the rapidly growing
number of businesses with leadership entering their late 60s and
early 70s.

focuses on good planning practices, the need to get underway and suggests ways
to alleviate some of the complexity and stress. This workshop is not an estate
planning program and does not convey any legal advice.
