This Don’t Want To Take Over; Want A Role Conversation Guide helps successors who want to communicate their decision to decline the role to take over but still work in the business without creating any conflict in the family or business.

As a succession candidate, you may need to turn down an offer to lead the business but may still want to work in it. This guide helps the successor clearly communicate the decision to not lead the business.  Learn to:

1. Preserve the relationship, and keep the door open for potentially taking over at a later time.
2. Communicate company issues that may prevent a potential successor from wanting to take the role.
3. Manage the expectations and sensitivities of all stakeholders in the business, including the owner

Need to reject the offer to lead but want to stay involved in the business? This Conversation Guide provides guidance that is:

• crafted by an organizational psychologist to address issues realistically and practically so users do not have to figure the steps out by themselves;
• step by step highlighting the main considerations that should be covered in this important conversation; and
• provides dual perspective of both owner and successor – helping each party see what the other may be considering. 

Ready to stay on in the business but not take the top spot? Have the conversation. Your business and family may depend on it.
