Learn How to Exit Your Business and Achieve Your Business and Financial Goals during a One Hour Webinar with John Leonetti

/in /by

Many small and midsized business owners find the majority of their wealth and income is tied to their illiquid, privately-held business and that the business itself is highly dependent upon their individual efforts for its continued success. These owners built their successful businesses with a plan and now need a new plan to ensure they reap the benefits of their hard work. Whether launching a new business or preparing to transition away from an existing enterprise, business owners need an exit strategy plan to ensure they achieve their ultimate business and personal goals.

In December, we were privileged to host John Leonetti, author of Exiting Your Business, Protecting Your Wealth: A Strategic Guide for Owners and Their Advisors and Managing Director of Pinnacle Equity Solutions, in a two-part interview series on the StrategyDriven Podcast. During our interview, John shared his insights on what exit planning is, the five exit options, identification of the best exit option given the business owner’s personal and financial readiness and goals, and the impact of taxes on exit option selection.

And now John is offering a complimentary online webinar where participants will learn more about how to implement these strategies and will be an opportunity to ask specific questions on exit planning.

Learn How to Achieve Enterprise Excellence at an Executive One-Day Seminar with Forrest Breyfogle

/in /by

Competitive pressures are forcing executives to react faster to changing business conditions and customer requirements. Line managers and decision-makers need to have an efficient and effective system for day-to-day business operation with access to performance metrics that lead to the most appropriate activities.

In July 2008, we were privileged to host Forrest Breyfogle, Founder and CEO of Smarter Solutions and author of The Integrated Enterprise Excellence System series on the StrategyDriven Podcast. During our interview, Forrest shared his insights on using the Integrated Enterprise Excellence System (IEE) to improve business performance beyond that achievable through use of Lean Six Sigma or The Balanced Scorecard alone. IEE combines the best practices of earlier tools and methods, like Lean Six Sigma, with innovative analytical techniques to drive financial and operational success at the enterprise level and achieve the three Rs of business, everyone doing the Right things the Right way at the Right time.

And now Forrest is offering a one-day executive seminar where participants will learn how to implement The Integrated Enterprise Excellence System to:

  • increase productivity and eliminate daily firefighting and non-value add activities from business processes
  • sustain a consistent, high-performance team environment and culture
  • improve top- and bottom-line strategies and results in a fierce competitive and global market
  • improve the measurement criteria and report out of high-level business metrics
  • achieve and execute repeatable, strategic business plans
