About Byron McFarland

Byron K. McFarland is a speaker and advisor who helps business owners and leadership teams create buy-in that builds trust, reduces risk, and increases transferable business value.

Over the last two decades, Byron has guided business owners through some of the most difficult decisions of their lives — who to sell their company to, who to reward and retain, how to navigate partners, and when to start or stop those conversations — touching nearly $3 billion in business value along the way. His work sits at the intersection of finance, human behavior, and legacy.

Byron is the founder of The McFarland Group. He works closely with founders who want more than an exit. They want confidence that their people, their culture, and their life’s work will continue to thrive long after they step away.
