Building a business that outlasts you starts with embracing a succession mindset every single day – not just when you’re ready to exit. Kay Solanki, founder of Coachtique and Chair of Vistage Australia & New Zealand, shares how leaders can weave legacy thinking into daily operations, developing clarity of role, pragmatic strategies, and resilient culture. After scaling an event company from two to 300 staff internationally, Kay pivoted to coaching executives through the pressures of growth, burnout, and reinvention.
She explains the power of “owner’s evolution” and “leader shaping”, frameworks that equip businesses to navigate generational shifts, leverage AI without losing their soul, and grow leadership pipelines that are ready before you need them. From mapping what good looks like in every seat to empowering emerging leaders to step up before they’re asked, Kay’s insights will challenge you to rethink how you build, delegate, and lead for the long term.
