Many also talk to estate planning and elder law attorneys to plan for their future or regarding issues related to the care of their loved ones.

A sound succession plan allows you to determine the answer to this question well in advance of any of these scenarios becoming reality and can ensure your business survives into the future. An article on business.com reported fewer than two-thirds of corporate leaders interviewed were actively executing a succession plan by grooming potential leaders. Another survey reported only 17% of non-profits have a succession plan in place.
