Ownership Transition
An ownership or generational transition is never just a legal or tax matter - it touches identity, relationships, and the future of the business.
What this is about.
Succession and ownership transitions go best when they are set up early, structured, and with a clear position on the future of the business. My contribution is to structure that process - with attention to the people as much as to the transaction.
In family businesses in particular, there is no standard answer. Respecting that every constellation has its own rhythm is part of the work.
What I specifically bring.
- Baseline work with owners and family: what should remain, what is allowed to change?
- Development of viable succession options - within the family, management buy-out, external partner, strategic sale.
- Preparing the business for sale or handover at operational and governance level.
- Guiding the handover itself - as a neutral party between owners, management and external advisors.
Who this is for.
- Family shareholders in a pending generational handover.
- Owners considering a partial or full sale but not ready to open the process.
- Advisory and supervisory boards supporting a succession clarification.
My approach.
Confidential, patient and at eye level with everyone involved. Not standardised succession advice - every situation has its own rhythm.
