In your personal, professional and spiritual life, everyone has a destination in mind. It is how you reach that destination that can be difficult to determine, which is why Dr. John Binkley champions having roadmaps that can help you fulfill your ambitions. This significance is emphasized in his work as Chairman of Generational Equity, as roadmaps play a key role in why the firm is regarded as one of the leading middle-market M&A firms in North America.

Roadmaps for Business

This influence is best demonstrated in Generational Equity’s Roadmap for Enhancing Value (REV), a process that Dr. Binkley feels is essential to achieving the best price when exiting your company. After completing the initial valuation of a business, clients are given a customized planning tool to enhance their company worth. This not only drives their business to achieve more revenue, but it makes them more attractive propositions to buyers.

Generational Equity’s success with this approach signifies how developing a plan to build a business’ value before placing it in front of buyers is key to success. This aim was laid out in the foundations of the firm, and has only become more refined and effective under the direction of Dr. Binkley and his son Ryan.

Dr. Binkley firmly believes that the value enhancement strategies provided in these roadmaps are why Generational Equity has facilitated the transfer of nearly $4 billion in wealth for clients. This makes the destination for business owners that much better, and ensures they’ll be in the ideal position to realize their personal and professional ambitions once they exit. This is the goal for every client.

It is unsurprising then that under Dr. John Binkley’s guidance, Generational Equity has been acknowledged by several key independent bodies for this service. The firm has won over 40 awards from The M&A Advisor, Thomson Reuters and Inc. 500, including the 2016 Investment Banking Firm of the Year. While Dr. Binkley doesn’t aim for awards, these accolades demonstrate the firm’s experienced M&A professionals and techniques are on the right track.

Roadmaps for Religion

But, it is not simply in the business landscape that Dr. Binkley sees the importance of roadmaps. It can also be a process for personal and spiritual fulfillment, leading to the greatest destination of them all. Dr. Binkley has always sought to spread God’s Word to people across the globe, whether it is through the 100+ mission trips he has been on since 1995 or being on the Board of Directors for several faith-based organizations – Here’s Life Africa, Iran Alive Ministries and Christian Cultural Center.

Dr. Binkley’s commitment to his faith and sharing the teachings of Christ led him to author Character Is King. God has a destination for you, and this is essential workbook concentrates on how you reach that objective. By demonstrating Christlike attributes in your everyday life and following universal truths set out by The Lord, this extensive roadmap provides the tools and thinking to discover God’s plans for you, in this life and the next.

As you can see then, having a roadmap for the most important aspects of your life can be extremely beneficial for personal and professional success. Many business owners who contacted Generational Equity have appreciated this tool in building the ideal exit strategy. Others have used Character Is King as a guide to explore their place in God’s eternal plans. For Dr. John Binkley, roadmaps are key to fulfilling your ambitions and guiding you towards your destination.
