Another Dimension to "Transition"

Posted by FP Transitions on Dec 8, 2015 8:57:11 AM

Creating a succession plan can be a momentous task, leading to a transition that transforms not only the business, but lifestyle of everyone involved. It often takes a team approach to cover all aspects of the transition and the personalities involved. We understand our strengths and our limits in the planning process, and embrace the opportunity to work with diverse professionals, coaches and consultants. Each brings something new and valuable to the table, and their role in the process can be as unique as the business going through transition. This guest blog is part of a series featuring some of our partners and colleagues who contribute to the succession planning process and supplement FP Transitions’ analytical and strategic skill set.

Our first guest blogger, Marty Kurtz, CFP, is a past president of the FPA and a terrific example of an advisor who transformed his business and gained the flexibility to move on to a new, meaningful chapter in his career. After completing his own succession plan, Marty launched Turning Point, a coaching program centered on a 3-day getaway where successful advisors can gather with a small group of their peers to focus on their vision for the future. In his own words, Marty explains what led him to create this valuable retreat, and how Turning Point fills a void for his fellow professionals.
