Re-Fire your self and your Career
Re-Fire to change, expand, or extend your professional career from consulting to advising, including Advisory Board appointments.
Some advisers Re-Fire to undertake more meaningful work.
Succession in Professional Firms
Many professional firms “refresh” their leadership teams on a regular basis – to attract and retain new talent, and to remain viable in competitive markets. This creates angst, and casualties, amongst mature professionals who want to keep working, but find themselves eased out for strategic, rather than performance, reasons.
Re-Fire Opportunity
Many family businesses, especially those working through succession processes, are frustrated by the limited scope services provided by their conventional, timesheet-bound, technical advisers. At certain times they need a more “Agile” Adviser with the time, ability and inclination to work closely with them on a broad range of practical challenges.
This presents a huge Re-Fire opportunity for advisers with the right training, experience, skills and attitude. Furthermore, it’s work that can be undertaken in collaboration with your old firm, or as an independent practitioner in the FBI Network, or both.
Typical Engagements
Most Re-Fire engagements provide Family Business Advisory, or Advisory Board services. They often involve collaboration with other specialist advisers to provide the full range of services the client needs, which may include:
- Succession, Sale of Business and Exit Plans – including valuations, capital raising, mergers and acquisitions.
