ESSENTIALS & PRINCIPLES
Pillars for Sustainability and Success
Despite 81% of EAC family-owned businesses aiming to establish a lasting legacy, less than 12% have created formal succession plans or developed effective multi-generational family governance structures. Family Essentials and Principles provide strategies to address this issue, such as enhancing communication, aligning business values, understanding historical business stories, and developing a future plan.
The program provides classroom and experiential learning activities to equip participants with the necessary skills to navigate family cultural dynamics and prepare them for critical succession planning conversations.
Engage with our international and local experts, led by Dr. Jean Meeks-Koch, PhD, FFI Fellow, ACFBA with 24+ years of experience in the family-owned and tightly held business discipline.
