Learning to Agree to Disagree June 14th, 2016 by Bill Boyajian |
Some people just can’t get disagreement out of their system. They want to argue a point to death and tell everyone around them how something or somebody is wrong. Sometimes you just want to tell them to “get over it.” You can disagree with someone without being notoriously disagreeable. You might even be right about something, but if you’re rude or indignant about it, you’re really wrong. Instead, learn to agree to disagree and move on. Most disagreements are more about opinion and worldview than about clear-cut “right or wrong.” So next time you disagree with someone, know what you believe, have confidence in it, and get on with your life. You’ll be a better, more agreeable person for it.

“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.”
