The results of this research indicate that the succession process that occurs starts from planning, preparation, giving responsibility, choosing a successor. Judging from the successor readiness and family relations, the results obtained are that the successor readiness is already very good but still needs to be improved in terms of work experience, and family relationships are very good but there are some conflicts will arise in the future that must be avoided.
