XPX Hawaii (XPX HI): Challenges of Rainmaker succession

Please join us for the next Exit Planning Exchange of Hawaii (XPX HI) event. XPX HI is a network of trusted advisors to privately-held businesses. We are building a strong, collaborative local business ecosystem that views exit planning as a holistic exercise along the entire life of a private business. Come join our diverse membership of professional advisors as we help clients build business value, transfer ownership and create a legacy of success in their lives and their communities. Our guest speaker for the event is Wade Hansen.

Join us for a focused discussion on the complexities of transitioning rainmaking responsibilities in professional service firms—and the critical role advisors play in that process. This session will cover:

• Key considerations in the months and years leading up to a sale or transition
• How succession planning decisions influence valuation and deal outcomes
• Why rainmaking is a learned and transferable skill—and how to develop it
• Strategies for transitioning client relationships and sustaining revenue post-transaction

Who should attend? Professionals interested in helping business owners grow and maximize the value of their business.
