ALLOWING ANOTHER PERSON into your life means an additional set of opinions, goals, desires, and feelings that might differ from your own. Different doesn’t imply that they are wrong. However, different can be challenging to handle.

Founders and the incoming generation need to learn more about each other. Some questions that might help include:
* What are their personally types?
* What part(s) of the business are they most interested in?
* What applicable skills and experience do they have?
* Do they have interest in a managerial role?
* How well do they work with the founders/next generation? With other business entities?
* Are they committed to the continuation of the business?
