Everyone Leads
October 6th, 2011

The best leaders see the future and balance it with reality. They know how to employ skills and develop resources to get things done. They know how to maximize their strengths and those of others. And more than anything, they have a knack for helping people with diverse backgrounds and talents accomplish team-oriented goals.

Leaders balance dreams with rational thinking, vision with reality. They know how to take a dream, form a vision, and make it reality. They take ideas and form strategy. They take strat­egy and form structure. They take structure and form action plans. Yet they are flexible enough to handle the curves and bumps in the road-to change course and take detours-while not wavering from the direction set and the ultimate destination. This is what makes leadership so challenging, yet so rewarding.

Simply stated, leadership sets direction, establishes priorities, harnesses resources, cultivates people, and empowers individuals to achieve team-oriented objectives.

“I needed help orchestrating a succession plan for our business. I had heard that Bill Boyajian specialized in assisting owners to transition their business to the next generation. He knows how to bridge the generation gap and deliver what each needs to hear. I would recommend Bill to any business owner who needs advice on succession planning from a trusted outside professional.”

"Our family needed some guidance on business transition and succession planning. We asked Bill Boyajian to help us because we knew we could trust him to tell us what we needed to hear. Bill became a valuable resource for our company and our entire family. He has the ability to meet each of us where we’re at and it has served us very well."

“We needed a plan to transition our business to a non-family member and we asked Bill Boyajian to help us. His experience in the area has really paid off, but we didn’t expect the added value of putting us together with a financial planner who helped organize our retirement needs. We now have the fundamentals to transition our business successfully, and we have Bill to thank for it.”
