Creating a legacy and leaving a lasting impression is what any successful entrepreneur and leader aspire to. This is the primary reason why an exit strategy and succession plan are essential to create a legacy, says Dr. Anil Sureen in his new book ‘A Visionary Leader- Creating Future for your Organization’. According to the book released in New Delhi on Sunday, an exit strategy is a must for every entrepreneur and developing leaders to create a succession plan and create a legacy that they can be proud of.
Dr. Sureen is a physician, ICF-coach/mentor and a licensed NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) trainer. He aims to support entrepreneurs, CEOs, executives, and those facing personal and workplace stress. His book covers the critical topics of diversity, artificial intelligence, digital media, and globalisation for present-day leaders.
The book contains eight steps to help hone the skills of those in a leadership role. It stresses the importance of having the right mindset and attitude and understanding the company’s vision, mission, and values and aligning them with one’s own core values. This allows an individual to create a culture for learning and growth. A leader’s decisions may have a local and global impact, and this points to the importance of developing the right competences.
It was mentioned in the book that a leader should focus on creating a new generation of leaders and ensure a smooth transition when they handover the reigns. This will ensure that their legacy and spirit lives on among employees. As such, it is important to create the right mindset and a sustainable culture within the organisation.
This article highlights the importance of having an exit strategy and a succession plan to create a lasting legacy. We can also look to Dr Sureen as an example to learn from. He is a successful physician, ICF coach/mentor, and licensed NLP trainer with a passion for helping entrepreneurs, CEOs, and executives.
