Include crucial stakeholders in race plan opinions and decide on your minimum conditions for payment 5. Work with a race planning professional or group and produce a plan for your life post-succession According to Deloitte, only 1 in 4 private company boards has a race plan in place.

Part of the problem is that the idea of race appears to be in the distant future. Still, pushing business race planning into the background can boomerang, leaving a business proprietor unrehearsed for an unforeseen sell-off or junction. As a result, a small business proprietor can also leave a plutocrat on the table. Drafting a race plan is the first step toward a successful transition and ensures that the business proprietor gets a better deal.
