Dave Robertson of Mulberry, FEC director, said the 鈥淏usiness Killers鈥� program is one that can help businesses avoid costly mistakes that can come from a failure to plan for ownership succession.
鈥淏usiness owners need to plan for an orderly transition, and this program will point out the downside of failing to plan,鈥� said Robertson, adding that few challenges demand more of a business owner than the passing on of their business.
鈥淵et succession planning is the most critical task to secure the future of private enterprise in America,鈥� said Robertson.
He said that each of the six modules in the 鈥淏usiness Killers鈥� program -- all presented in a concise, interactive video format -- can help business owners learn from the mistakes of others.
