IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Registration and participation in the webinars is completely anonymous to third parties
If, for a month, you were unable to have a say in important decisions, what would happen in your company? Your company may be growing, profitable and have good customers, yet still rely too heavily on you. Dependence on the founder is one of the risks that most severely limits the growth of a tech company and one of the first things a buyer spots when analysing it. With this webinar, we’re launching 'Ready4Exit in action', a programme of practical sessions designed to identify the decisions and responsibilities that rely too heavily on you and come up with an action plan for the next 30 days..
- Date: 6th November 2026 (Friday)
- Time: 10:30 (CET)
- Duration: 30 minutes
- Registration: free and anonymous for third parties
The session will be introduced by Paul von Kessel, BD Manager at Baker Tilly Tech M&A, and led by Diego Gutiérrez, a partner at Baker Tilly Tech M&A and author of Ready4Exit method.
Ten levers, ten sessions: from diagnosis to action
Following the publication of Ready4Exit method, Diego Gutiérrez’s book on how to build a more valuable company that is better prepared for a future sale, we are launching a programme of ten practical webinars. Each session covers a key aspect of preparing a company and uses tools that you can apply directly to your business.
What will you learn in this webinar?
This first session focuses on identifying and reducing the company’s dependence on its founder. In 30 minutes, you will learn how to:
- Identify three tasks, decisions or relationships that rely too heavily on you.
- Assess which of these poses the greatest risk to your business.
- Decide which responsibilities other members of your team can take on.
- Draw up an initial 30-day action plan, setting out one priority, one person responsible and a deadline.
By the end of the session, you’ll have an initial map of dependencies and a concrete plan for tackling the most important one.
Who is it aimed at?
- CEOs and founders of technology companies.
- Business leaders who want to professionalise their management and build more autonomous teams.
- Business owners who want to prepare their company for the future.
You don’t need to be planning to sell your business to get the most out of this session.
Before you log in
Think of three decisions, client relationships or responsibilities that still require your direct involvement. These will serve as your starting point during the session, and you won’t need to share any confidential information.
