It’s likely that few people, if any, have ever told you, “You need to make yourself less important,” regarding your business.
But sophisticated buyers look for businesses that can operate without their owners. Unless your goal is to sell or transfer your business, and then stay with the business as a subordinate to assure a smooth transition, you’ll need to train a management staff that can run the business without you.
This is the most important value driver you’ll install, and for many owners, it’s the hardest because they aren’t prepared to expend the emotional and mental energy required to remove themselves from their businesses.
There are countless technical strategies for making yourself inconsequential to your business, many of which we’ve discussed in previous articles.
But just as important as the technical aspects are the mental and emotional aspects, so let’s look at some of the common mental and emotional roadblocks you might face as you make yourself inconsequential.
