For many architecture firms, the business is not just a career, but a lifestyle. However, when the time comes to retire or slow down, the most important investment you can rely on might not be your 401(k), IRA, or real estate portfolio—but your firm. Succession planning is not just about ensuring your practice can continue without you; it’s about building a valuable asset that can provide significant financial security and wealth, potentially making your firm your most significant retirement asset.

Join us for an essential webinar on the best practices for succession planning and leadership transition. This session, designed specifically for firm owners who may not have considered the long-term financial benefits of planning ahead, will be led by an industry expert, who successfully sold his 17-person firm in 2007. Steve Burns, FAIA will show you how to strategically grow your firm’s value, preparing it for a successful transition that can offer you the financial freedom to step back when you are ready.

We’ll cover the critical steps for ownership transition, from strategic and financial planning to cultivating leadership within your team. By empowering the next generation and creating a strong, sustainable firm, you’ll be setting yourself up for a future where your hard work pays off in more ways than one.
