Exit Strategy
1) I intend to stay with my business venture for a number of decades. I am passionate about Occupational Therapy and I am passionate about helping those in need and teaching what I have learned, for the greater good of humanity. As OPT for Refugees is an NGO, I would not be looking to sell it off, although if an opportunity presents it self, I would not be opposed to handing it over to good hands.
2) I am not concerned with wealth because wealth does not equate to a content and fulfilled life. The rewards are greater if I am doing meaningful work. This is why I would choose to stick with this entrepreneurial venture for the long run. I would chose to hand it off to a trusted board member who I have worked with for a number of years and who I would trust to make ethical decisions for the group going forward.
3) I would say that this kind of venture requires me to stay involved because working internationally requires familiar faces for other organizations to know and trust. Opportunities for working with refugees grow and develop all over the world as war and violence pops up continuously throughout time. Therefore the longer I stay in the game, the more opportunities will present themselves.

Hi Tommy;
ReplyDeleteI think your post does an excellent job of describing your exit strategy. After reading it, I can understand why you intend to stay with your business for decades. I find it inspiring the role that your passions play in your decision and your overall involvement with the venture. Also, I think it's encouraging that you are not concerned with wealth but with doing a work that is meaningful. Go Gators!
