Benefits of a family forum

A "family forum" provides an opportunity for all family members -- usually adults, but sometimes teenagers -- learn how to communicate across generations, how to resolve conflict, and how to establish a successor. It also provides a healthy opportunity for the younger generation to develop pride in what has been built by the older generations, especially before they choose their own careers.

The family forum also ensures that business decisions will be made in their proper context, by the executive team in consultation with other business advisors.
