Your partner in succession planning

I walk by your side

The most comprehensive support. I am your partner throughout the entire succession process — from the first honest conversation about stepping down to the moment you feel secure about what comes next. This includes everything covered in the guided programme, supplemented by ongoing availability, collaboration with external advisers and active support for both the outgoing leader and the successor throughout the entire transition. On a retainer basis.

the challenge

When the stakes are high

On the surface, you’re performing well, but inside you feel tension or doubt. You’re successful, but something doesn’t quite feel right anymore. This may indicate that it’s time to move on from your role in the company. But you may have become so intertwined with your role in the company that you don’t know how to separate the two. And you may also be afraid of what lies ahead once you leave the company.

Transitions do not always happen in a dramatic way. Sometimes they emerge as a quiet inner realisation: something needs to change. Sometimes it is time to move on and your body already knows it, but your mind does not yet. However, the stakes are high and you need long-term support for both you and your successors to overcome these obstacles and resistance. And to ensure that they carry the business forward successfully.

my approach

A path to clarity

In this programme, I combine the support provided in the succession planning process with comprehensive individual coaching for the person stepping down from the business (which may also continue after the handover). This programme combines psychological insight, reflection and embodied awareness. The process is structured, but never rigid. Not only do I assist with the handover, but I also work with you to create a safe and professional space in which you can discover what your next step is and how you can let go of your business. I am available (on an on-call basis) for a period of one year.

more information

This programme offers you:

  • A concrete step-by-step plan for the handover
  • Insight into resistance and obstacles
  • Clarity about your next step in life after the handover
  • Clarity about what is needed to let go and take the plunge

This form of support is the most intensive. As well as comprehensive support throughout the handover, this programme also includes intensive one-to-one support for you and your successor(s) to ensure the handover is as successful as possible… and I’ll remain on board for a while after the handover to make sure everything runs smoothly. For one year, I’ll be available at fixed times and on an on-call basis.
