Your business may be financially successful, but you are probably still central to too many decisions. Feelings of being stuck, overwhelmed or lonely are common. Succession thinking is an SME business-building approach to help you build a resilient business – a business that can be successful beyond you. A business that can create sustained value and deliver long-term success. The application of succession thinking can deliver this while also increasing the value of your business. And it is an approach to building your SME where you don’t lose your entrepreneurial roots.

Bill was raised in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. The combination of a small community and small business (his parents were SME Owner-Leaders) had a big impact on his values and philosophy. After graduating to work as a software engineer in 1984, he joined a 1 man business - Metech - to solve ore resource estimation and mine planning problems. He went on to lead Metech. This led to the founding of acQuire - a geoscience software company. Bill was an Owner-Leader in acQuire for 22 years and it was in this company that Bill founded ADAPT by Design (adapt). Successsion Thinking was seed in acQuire and validated in adapt.

* Succession Thinking is for people that want to build long term businesses with the capability to produce sustained value. * An SME is where there is a big overlap between ownership and leadership. SME Owner-Leaders need a very specific stewardship/governance system that is design for their needs. Publicly Listed Corporation approaches do not work because they tend to be driven by short term ROI (shareholder value). SMEs are successful when they care for their people and their customers. * This is a method specific to SMEs and for those leaders that want long term success. The underserved need is vast but the solutions are very rare. Publicity: * Comprehensive traditional and social media publicity campaigns. * National and international speaking engagements. * Promotion within industry groups.
