Have you lost sleep wondering what will happen to your water treatment business when it is time for you to retire? If you don’t have an overall plan for your exit strategy, it’s time to get one. Even if you don’t plan to exit for a long time.
In today’s episode, I speak with Michael Warady, President and Co-Founder of the Sylmar Group. Before founding Sylmar, Michael led project development efforts and was a member of the growth-stage equity investment team at AquaTECTURE where he led the development of new water treatment projects such as cooling towers and wastewater reuse facilities. In addition to running the Sylmar Group, he is an Industrial Advisory Board member of the International Desalination Association and sits on the non-profit Access Books board. 
Michael and I talk about some different options for exiting your business when that time comes. It’s so important to be comfortable and confident in your long-term plan, and in today’s episode, we talk about how to make that happen. Enjoy!
