Business succession refers to the process of planning for the smooth transition of ownership and management of a business when the current owner retires, becomes incapacitated, or passes away. Without a proper succession plan, businesses can face serious disruptions, legal disputes, or even failure. A well-structured business succession plan ensures that the company can continue operating seamlessly, protects the interests of the owners and employees, and minimizes legal and financial complications for the next generation of leadership.
