Many retail jewelry store owners have built successful businesses but lack a clear plan for developing future leaders and transitioning authority. This session provides a practical framework to identify, develop, and empower the next generation.

Attendees will learn how to move beyond informal succession planning and implement a structured approach to leadership development, accountability, and decision-making. We’ll address common challenges such as promoting the wrong people, holding onto control too long, and navigating family versus non-family dynamics.

Participants will leave with actionable strategies to begin developing leaders immediately while protecting their business, culture, and long-term legacy.
