YOUR OWNERSHIP JOURNEY™

As a business owner, your focus inevitably shifts between managing day-to-day operational issues and growing the long-term value of the business. The key is to strike the right balance between your role as a leader and your role as an owner. Leadership and ownership represent two distinct roles, as outlined in the Ownership Journey™ Diagram below.

The content is organized into 10 categories based on elements outside investors typically assess during due diligence when evaluating a company for investment or acquisition. The topics, accented by the green circles on the diagram below, are what you will need to optimize to maximize the value of your business.

The Leadership and Ownership Tracks

The CEO Nexus System is designed to help you navigate Your Ownership Journey™.

You may not be thinking about it now, but all owners eventually leave their business. You need to plan for that reality. There are a wide range of issues essential to maximizing the value of a business in the eyes of an outside investor or buyer. M&A experts frequently note that owners often underestimate the time it takes to prepare a company for the due diligence process at exit. It can take up to three years to prepare to effectively navigate this gauntlet.

To optimize their ownership journey, CEOs must continually strike the right balance between ownership and leadership issues (It’s the old adage “Work on your business, not just in it”).

Many CEOs wait too long to begin paying attention to the ownership track, allowing the tyranny of the urgent to overshadow long-term value creation. The earlier you pay attention to the significance of the financial interdependence that exists between leadership and ownership issues, the more likely you’ll achieve the long-term results you want.

CEO Nexus Roundtable Program

Our CEO roundtables support each track of Your Ownership Journey™ and the interdependence between the two tracks. Our trained facilitators lead roundtable discussions designed to address both the leadership track and the ownership track. We help you navigate your journey by bringing context and clarity to where your business is at today, where you’re going and why.

Power of Peer Learning™

Receiving relevant and timely feedback from other business owners can be extremely valuable. The CEO Nexus Roundtable program is specifically designed for the decision-making challenges facing second-stage CEOs like you.

Each month, you’ll participate in a problem-solving process via a roundtable comprised of 10 to 15 qualified, non-competing CEOs and a professional facilitator. This program is designed to help you grow your company and maximize its value.

Every month you’ll have your issues addressed and your questions answered. You’ll leave energized and full of new ideas and relevant best practices.
