Who we help Trusted Providers & Advisors
You help your clients make wise decisions.
We help you spot what’s holding them back.
If you serve families in business or with shared assets, you’ve likely seen their challenges up close. You know they can hinder a client’s ability to act on your professional recommendations. Some conflicts can even threaten the longevity of the business and the long-term harmony of the family.With more than 25 years’ experience working with family businesses, we can help you understand those challenges and their impact on critical business, wealth and estate decisions. We can also partner with you to work directly with the family.
Experienced Partners
Leverage our experience to help your clients find the solutions they need.
Our team brings a breadth and depth of expertise in crucial areas of family business like governance, leadership, communication and group decision making. Through consultation and education, we work with families to align owners around a common vision and shared goals that will guide business strategy and operations. And we help establish effective structures and systems so owners can make critical business decisions with one unified voice.
Likewise, our consultants are steeped in disciplines like psychology, organizational behavior and conflict resolution that impact family dynamics and business decisions. We’ve helped thousands of families communicate more constructively and address sensitive topics — like addiction, divorce and strained relationships — in a safe, neutral space where all voices can be heard.
Most business advisors build blast shields. You guys disarm live time bombs!” remarked a friend of our firm, who just so happens to be a lawyer.
