In this episode, Jordan and Eric discuss:
-
Managing Succession Risk
-
An Executive Roundtable
-
Using whole life insurance in a manner like stock options
Key Takeaways
-
Using insurance mechanisms can help business owners address key employee risk and succession planning challenges. It creates a unique incentive that protects the organization while also creating resources for the key employee who’s next in line to purchase the business.
-
An Executive Roundtable is an approach to evaluate the true efficacy of a CFO consulting engagement.
-
Create space in your organization to allow the CEO and their team to discuss issues with bare honesty. Being accountable to each other will hurt, but when things get difficult or painful it is usually a sign that you are going in the right direction.
“It hurts to be accountable. And if it hurts, then you're probably - not always - but you're probably doing the right thing, or at least headed in the right direction.” — Eric Chriss
