+Long-tenure founder: Senior director has been in place 20 years — deep operational knowledge concentrated in one person.
+Founder age: Director aged approximately 80 — succession pressure is live.

73/100

SIGNALS

primaryFounder aged 70+: Senior director is approximately 80 years old. Natural succession window is now.
