Charles' tips on divestment:

• Establish portfolio review protocols so that it’s clear which businesses you might want to sell to and why

• Allow time to enhance the value of the business

• Involve stakeholders so they understand performance expectations and aren’t threatened by a potential sale

• Enlist an internal project leader who has the C-suite’s ear
