Have you ever wondered what your company is actually worth and whether a purchase price is realistically financeable?

Or are you a successor facing the challenge of assuming responsibility on short notice and gaining acceptance from employees and business partners?

In the Saxon Mittelstand (small and medium-sized enterprises) in particular, many companies are currently faced with the task of successfully managing the transition to the next generation. Numerous owners and managing directors are reaching an age where business succession becomes necessary. Such a transition involves a wide range of strategic, financial, and organizational questions.

Key Topics and Speakers

Professor Dr. Alexander Lahmann (Lehrstuhlinhaber Mergers and Acquisitions & Direktor des Instituts für Familienunternehmen und Unternehmensnachfolge) specializes in advising on business successions. He will address more than just company valuation; the optimal timing for the handover, the appropriate transition process, and the right structural framework will also be in focus. His presentation explores the question:

“What is my company’s value and what financing options do I have as a successor?”

Dr. Dr. Justinus Pech (Experte und Dozent für Führung und Coaching) will discuss leadership during a business takeover, going beyond the first operational steps of the new management. Key areas of focus include successfully navigating the change in roles, building trust with employees and stakeholders, and quickly identifying central fields of action. His presentation addresses the question:

“How can I ensure an effective entry into corporate leadership, and how can a structured 90-day program secure the success of the new management team?”

Following the presentations, a discussion with Steffen Fischer (Geschäftsführer FISCHER druck&medien) will complement the theoretical insights with practical experience. Participants will also have the opportunity to discuss specific questions from their own business practice.
