The Starting Point: Understanding the Issues
The ideal for every family business is to work cooperatively toward a shared vision for the future. That’s not always easy.
In most instances, the essential starting point on the path to a successful future is a process from which you will realize the following benefits:
- Joining together in a cooperative effort to develop a shared vision for the future.
- Having a realistic, objective snapshot of the issues of importance to all stakeholders.
- Understanding of the principles and best practices employed by high-performing family businesses.
- Working together to create an implementation plan tailored to the needs of your family and its business.
- Working with professional facilitators on effective communication, problem solving and conflict resolution.
This comprehensive program is facilitated by a Doud Hausner & Associates strategic advisory team over a 6-12 week period. Program activities include:
- A snapshot of the family/business systems develop from our proprietary survey instruments
- Education for all adult family members at a private Family Briefing
- 1:1 confidential interviews with adult family members, key non-family executives and trusted advisors
- A Family Retreat that includes creating the family’s vision, understanding the family’s values, learning communication skills, reviewing and discussing critical issues, setting priorities and creating an implementation action plan.
