A webinar to prepare sibling- and cousin-owned family enterprises for the complexity of leadership transitions, especially in disruptive times

This webinar is for post-founder family enterprises as they plan for sibling-to-cousin and cousin-to-cousin transitions. It is valuable for active family owners, governance members, and leaders in sibling and cousin groups that own large, diversified enterprises around the world.

Transitions from siblings to cousins, and among cousin ownership groups, deeply challenge a family enterprise. These transitions from the 2nd to 3rd generation, and beyond, require the family enterprise to transform its governance design, leadership model, and talent teams to be capable of thriving in complex environments. This is particularly true of today’s new reality.

Through work with several multigenerational family enterprises at the cousin stage and in transition from siblings-to-cousins, we have developed a framework and structured process to support effective leadership transitions at these stages. In this live webinar, we want to guide family owners by sharing some of our approaches and lessons learned, including how these transitions need to adapt to today's new reality.
