Linda Rabbitt, founder and CEO of rand* construction walked into her office at the company’s headquarters in Alexandria, VA and briefly closed the door behind her. It was 10:00 a.m. on Monday, September 22, 2014, and she had just addressed her staff after the sudden and tragic death of the company’s well-loved President, Jon Couch, the previous Friday afternoon. It had been an emotional address, as Rabbitt tried to inspire the company to move forward while holding back her own tears. For Rabbitt and for everyone else at the company, the loss was both professional and personal. Furthermore, Couch’s death signified for Rabbitt the loss of her entire succession plan. Now in her mid-60s, Rabbitt was preparing to turn over the reins of the company to Couch, whom she had partnered with and mentored for eighteen years. What should Rabbitt do now? What should she plan for the future now that Couch was gone?
