Mike Tyson said, “Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face”. When it comes to succession plans, human dynamics are the punch. These dynamics can include, self-doubt, culture/value misalignments, unclear successor roles, fear of letting go, family conflict, status insecurity, nostalgia, resistance to a new leader, hidden alliances, unclear successor roles, or entitlement among heirs.
In this interactive session, you will see how insights from organizational behavior help clients move past those barriers, creating smoother transitions and reducing the risk of conflict that can fracture relationships, stall growth, and even cripple bottom lines.
Through short breakout reflections, you will identify where these challenges have shown up in the past, landmines that may be on the horizon, and how partnering with an Organizational Behavior expert can set both you and your clients up for lasting success.
