EBOOK
About
In his first book, Uncommon Sense, Michael Givoni gave founders of private and family-owned businesses the roadmap to establishing a great board. This second book picks up where the first one left off.
The Business Beyond You is for founders who have done the work of building a board and are ready for what comes next. How do you use that board to build a culture worth keeping and a business worth buying? How do you plan a transition - whether to the next generation, a private equity partner, or a strategic buyer - that protects everything you have spent a lifetime building? And when the sale is finally done, what comes next for you?
Drawing on decades of experience as a professional chairman of private and family-owned businesses across Australia, Michael Givoni guides founders through every stage of the journey from board to exit. He shares what works, what fails, and what he has learned from sitting in the room when both happen.
Honest about the emotional reality of letting go, clear about the commercial process, and frank about life on the other side of the sale, The Business Beyond You is the essential guide for any founder who wants to finish well.
