Sacramento, CA, April 4, 2012 – Small Business Technology author Karl Palachuk announced that Arlin Sorensen – widely regarded for his passion in serving and educating small businesses and IT consultants around the world – will present a keynote address entitled “Your CEO Transition Plan” at the first major Online Conference for Small Business IT Consultants, Managing for Success 2012.

Sorensen is always on the “short list” of influential people in small business IT consulting.
Sorensen’s topic is Your CEO Transition Plan. “This is a critical element of running a successful business,” says Sorensen. “So many IT companies have put off making transition plans.
