He knew that outstanding entrepreneurs are aware of the importance of a successor and thus cultivate one out of their own habits.
Training a successor is similar to raising a son. You can infer what the father is like from the son's conduct, and from the depth of a successor, you can discern the current state of the business.

Ancient emperors did the same. The ruthless ones favored cultivating a callous heir, while the benevolent favored supporting a compassionate son.
