LIVE, ONLINE PROGRAM
Are You Ready to Take Your Familiy Council to the Next Level?
Join us for the annual program, Making Family Councils More Effective: a four-session, live, online workshop designed to help Family Councils worldwide be more strategic and valuable to their families.
During the program, you will experience interactive, live presentations by faculty who are international experts in family governance and family enterprise. You will have knowledge-sharing opportunities with participant families from around the world and you will create a concrete plan to strengthen your Family Council.
Are you looking for the tools to keep your family united, decisive, and engaged with your family enterprise?
This is an advanced program, designed for Family Councils that are beyond the “startup stage" that have already done the hard work of launching family governance, and have some experience organizing their family and setting up the mechanics of their Family Council.
We will help you keep the momentum going, enhance the work of your Family Council, and benchmark with others.
“By attending the program, I gained a comprehensive analysis of how to maximize the benefits of a family council. There were so many takeaways about how to improve the effectiveness of our council.”
