Exit Plan

Planning an exit strategy is the most commonly overlooked consideration of a business strategy, yet the exit strategy plays a key role in determining the strategic direction for the company. Good employees are hard to find and just as hard to keep. And while turnover is a natural phenomenon in every workplace, dealing with an unexpected employee exit effectively makes all the difference to all parties concerned.
