The Women of M&A Source
Joe Lindsey, M&AMI, CBI
M&A Source Chairman
The July 2013 edition of the M&A Source newsletter, the BRIDGE, published an article of mine entitled "The Trouble with Women." The point of that article, in my opinion, was that The M&A Source did not have enough women in leadership roles.
Perhaps it's time to revisit the premise that we do not have enough women in leadership roles. Let's compare where we were then with where we are today.

Keys to Navigating the Buy/Sell Highway
James P. O'Sullivan
May Lu
Tiffany & Bosco
Are you considering selling your business? If not now, a bit further down the road? Whether you are expecting a leisurely drive with the top down or a rally-car cliff hanger, some special insights can help you avoid wrong turns and dead ends.
What is Motivating Your Move?
It is always better to have as the reason for your sale, thoughtful planning for the good of your family and employees rather than finding yourself on the dreaded "D List" (Disenfranchisement, Default on Debt, Divorce, Disability, or Death).

Would You Hire Monty Hall?
Tracey Gillespie
Wells Fargo
Matrix Value Advisors Article
Imagine standing next to Monty Hall, surrounded by enthusiastic contestants screaming advice regarding which door to pick. And you're listening, because you are the lucky contestant on "Let's Make an Exit Deal"! Door 1 looks as promising as Door 2. But maybe Door 3 conceals the coveted grand prize. Behind each door is a potential successor or acquirer, anxiously awaiting for you to hand them the reins in exchange for a deal.
