An Overlooked Risk in Management Buy-Outs Ft. David Gage

A management buyout feels like the cleanest possible exit — your trusted team takes over, the legacy is preserved, everyone wins. But when partners and co-owners haven't built strong interpersonal foundations, MBOs carry a risk most advisors don't put on the table: the deal can blow up not over financials, but over relationships. Dr. David Gage, clinical psychologist, founder of BMC Associates in Arlington, Virginia, and author of The Partnership Charter, joins Pat and Walter to explore the human and structural risks embedded in management buyouts. David explains why the psychological side of the transition is the most overlooked — and often the most consequential — variable in whether these deals succeed.  Guest: David Gage, Ph.D., Founder, BMC Associates | Author, The Partnership CharterConnect with guest: linkedin.com/in/david-gage-75a6441/“We want you to help you build a business that is sellable and exit successfully on your own terms and conditions.” - Pat EnnisConversations that move you closer to a regret-proof exit.
