The Ethical Exit

You built something. A company. A legacy. A team that feels like family. Now you want to leave — and you are terrified. The Ethical Exit is for founders who care about what happens to their employees, customers, and community after they walk away. Serial entrepreneur and impact investor Hannah Wright has sold three companies. The first sale left her employees jobless and her ashamed. The second was better. The third was a model for responsible transition. In this book, Wright shares what she learned the hard way: how to value your company fairly, how to find a buyer who shares your values, how to negotiate severance packages for every employee, and how to walk away without guilt. Selling your business does not have to be a betrayal. Done right, it is the final act of leadership. Your company was your baby. Now learn to let it grow up without you.
