Types of Business Succession Plans

Learn the succession plan types that protect your business legacy

Succession Plans

 Succession Plans

There are two main types of succession plans:

Long-Term Succession Plans

Long-term planning involves proactively looking ahead and preparing for an eventual transfer of ownership, such as when an owner retires. It often requires identifying and developing talent over an extended period to prepare individuals to step into key leadership roles.

A long-term business succession plan should be reviewed and updated regularly based on the company's changing needs.

Emergency Succession Plans

An emergency succession plan manages a sudden change of ownership. For example, an owner may die unexpectedly, and this event can send the business into a downward spiral.

An emergency succession plan considers the legal transfer of ownership and interim measures to follow while longer-term plans are developed, such as the appointment of an acting successor.
