Frequently Asked Questions
-
A family enterprise is a collection of decision making, management and implementation activities and resources related to a family's shared ownership across operating businesses, a family office, public and private investments, commercial and personal real estate, and collections of personal property (art, jewelry, automobiles, etc.), as well as philanthropic initiatives.
-
Our best fit relationships are families or their advisors seeking breakthroughs where significant structural and relational complexity is negatively affecting clear direction and relationship quality. We align with clients through a genuine mutual interest in defining and pursuing generational well-being. Our clients value a sounding board that has real world family enterprise experiences, represents the entire family (not any one individual), models respectful interaction and constantly aligns purpose with everyday tasks.
-
We know and partner with many of our peers given the complementary nature of our respective capabilities. Many of those peers focus more on the “relational” realm, while others engage primarily in the “business” realm. In order to be most helpful to generational well-being, family relationships need to be processed in the context of enterprise management interactions. Therefore, our engagements toggle between both everyday organizational strategy and management (context) and relational coaching (effective communications and decision making). This is consistent with a family systems mindset where we weave together strategy + process + human dynamics to help families and advisors move forward with clarity and cohesion. Our priority is to focus solely on supporting the well-being of each family—not selling products, managing assets, or advancing any one stakeholder’s agenda.
-
Our mandate for each family engagement is to support their definition of generational well being.
For us, well-being relates to creating the capacity for generational continuity, human growth and development, and effective communications for each generation to thrive as individuals, family units and as a collective.
What does Generational Well-Being mean to you? Your family?
-
We structure our engagements to clarify scope of work, process calendar and milestones for key deliverables.
Our pricing is defined by the value of our facilitation toward the breakthrough each family is seeking, number of stakeholders, intensity of pre-during-post meeting facilitation, in-person demands and geographic locations—and also reflects the level of availability required to remain ready, responsive, and deeply focused throughout the engagement.
We begin with an open initial conversation, and promptly reflect back on what we heard and believe to be an effective engagement process.
