RaboElevate Special: Succession Planning with Isobel Knight – Putting families in the driving seat

from RaboResearch Food & Agribusiness Australia/NZ

No matter where you're at in your farm business, it's never too early to start thinking about succession. In this episode of RaboElevate, Rabobank's Skye Ward sits down with Isobel Knight from Proagtive, drawing on her 25 years of experience working with farming families in succession planning. From how to start the process, to creating the appropriate forum for these discussions, Isobel shares why structure and communication are key – and how, in her experience, these conversations can actually deepen family relationships.     Disclaimer: This publication is not a RaboResearch publication and is for information purposes only.
