Tthe Institute of Successful Exit Planning, located in Harvard Square in Cambridge, MA. works with professionals, business owners and executives, to help them factor in the often overlooked Head and Heart issues which are essential for effective work-life transitions and financial and business success.
Personal Exit Planning is essential for successful personal and business transitions, but even high-powered owners, executives, or professionals often fail to plan effectively because of limited thinking styles or unrecognized assumptions. The Institute of Successful Exit Planning help clients expand their thinking and bypass subjective hurdles so they can make well thought-out plans for successful exit-planning, planning their futures after they leave their companies, and other work/life and business transitions.
In response to the growing wave of Baby Boomers who are getting ready to exit their companies but do not want to “retire” in the traditional sense, The Institute of Successful Exit Planning programs help individual clients – including business owners, executives, and professionals – successfully make the transition to the next stage of their life. Our proprietary principles and strategic approaches allow owners or professionals to successfully answer the question, "What next?" and create a detailed operational and tactical plan which supports their inner vision and fills their post-transactional lives with meaning and purpose.
Would you start a new business without a business plan?
Would you build a new house without a blueprint?
The answer is obviously no. Then why would you sell your business and start a new life without creating a well thought out game plan for what you want to do with your company and your life? InnerVisions' personal planning advisory services help you:
Avoid Making Mistakes That Can Cause You to FAIL. These mistakes can last your lifetime. They are:
A perfectionist’s approach which can prohibit your living a fulfilling life
An R&D approach which creates the need for certitude and results in an inability to effectively handle change
A black and white approach that creates shallow lifestyle decisions which result in living a one-sided life
A “silo” approach that is responsible for compartmentalizing the future
A one dimensional approach that limits your awareness
A purposeless approach by making ungrounded life decisions
A “Wing and a Prayer” approach that is responsible for not creating an execution plan for your life
Avoid the Costly Mistakes of "Seller’s Remorse “
Selling a business is a very personal matter and one of the biggest and most emotional decisions that you will make in you life. This is why most business sellers suffer, to greater or lesser degrees, the debilitating distress of seller's remorse during their transactions. InnerVisions’ personal planning helps you avoid having a change of heart while selling your business which can:
Create costly distractions
Reduce your chances of selling your company in the future
Cause you to incur legal and financial costs by walking away from the sale
Start your post ownership life with regret An additional benefit of InnerVisions’ personal exit planning is that if you decide to sell, a business intermediary will increase his efforts, because his biggest fear- that you are not a serious seller- has been eliminated.
