Internationally Recognized Business Consultant Contributes Article to Caregiver.com Outlining the Importance of Succession Planning for Family Businesses

Jan 3, 2022

Business succession consultant releases article sharing key questions that every family business owner needs to ask.

WEST HARTFORD, Conn. - January 3, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

Jack Veale has published an article on the topic of succession planning for family business owners at Caregiver.com. This article is especially helpful because small business owners often neglect to create a succession plan to ensure the continuity of their businesses. Without a succession plan, the business may be overwhelmed with power struggles, financial insecurity, and a lack of clear vision and values. 

Jack Veale's new article, entitled Preparing Your Family Company for Your Unexpected Death, is an exploration of four critical questions revolving around issues crucial to the leadership transition and survival of the business.

In this article, Jack Veale expertly guides the business owner to consider their core values, business value, and potential successors to create a comprehensive succession plan. 

About the Sudden Death Checklist

The "Sudden Death Checklist" has been formulated by Jack Veale over a number of years as he has pulled from his vast background, research, and practical experience of walking families through the stressful and difficult task of picking up the pieces and making plans for the future after their husband, father, and business owner has suddenly and unexpectedly died. By planning ahead, a business owner can lift some of this heavy burden off of his family and his business in advance. The "Sudden Death Checklist" is a complete planning guide that is used primarily by financial advisors as they work with the business owner in gathering all of the information that will be necessary for the family to have access to in the case of his sudden death. From passwords for his computer to current company projects and bank documents the "Sudden Death Checklist" process gathers all of the necessary materials into one convenient place and ensures continuity in a difficult time.

AI doesn’t just answer questions – it legitimises bad ones

Years ago, I watched a focus group explain itself into a contradiction. We asked people what mattered when choosing car insurance. Price won. The deductible came next. Reputation did not appear. During coffee, I asked the interviewer to change the question. How much cheaper would a less prestigious insurer have to be before they switched? One participant, who 15 minutes earlier ranked price first, said no discount was large enough. Nothing changed except how we asked the question. Something...
