THE FAMILY BUSINESS FACILITATOR®

OUR PROCESS-

THE FAMILY BUSINESS FACILITATOR®

At Family Business Counsel, our seasoned experts use our 5 step process known as the FAMILY BUSINESS FACILITATOR® to facilitate and guide the conversations your family needs to have, but avoids.  Such as:

• Who should be next in line to run the business
• How can dad/mom stay engaged without getting in the way?
• When it comes to owning shares of the company, what is “fair”?
• Why can’t we agree on what our commitments will be as employees of the business?
• How do we balance the “teeter totter” of our family business?

We help you by setting a safe table and inviting the “dinner guests” (family members) to sit and stay and talk awhile, knowing that if we keep seeking to understand each other, we’ll get somewhere.  We nudge when we need to nudge.  We ask delicate, important questions to help get everyone’s cards on the table.  For this to work, everyone must get engaged and stay engaged.  If we “dare greatly” together, we can co-create a picture of our future family business that we want, like a movie trailer for relationships and the business.  We can use our improving company culture as a catalyst to reach our future, together. 

Our experts will help you and your family journey to better results: less conflict, less "just living with it," healthier culture, reconciled relationships...

Our proven methods, including a proactive process and specific tools that yield gains time-after-time, are designed uniquely for family businesses...so your family business can reach its possibly-as-yet-unimagined potential.

We dare to believe that any family can pass down healthy relationships as part of the family inheritance.  We engage with families in business in a way that elevates awareness and heals relationships so the family can define and reach its vision, together.

We ask you to ask yourself:

What is the cost of doing nothing??
