FAMILY HISTORY AND ADVISORY

For families and family enterprises, legacy is about more than wealth or succession. It is the story of the values and life lessons that guide them.

At a time when so many forces—geographic, generational, and cultural—exist to pull your family apart, we help you discover the shared experience that binds you together.

Unlike traditional family business advisors or wealth managers, we delve into your history to capture and codify the core values that have enabled your success over the long term. Then we work with you to communicate those values in ways that make each generation feel invested in this larger story.

At the same time, we know that family history is not about the past; it’s about the future. That’s why, unlike genealogists or run-of-the-mill family biographers, we approach every family’s story as a source of insight and self-knowledge that can empower sustainable choices about ownership, governance, philanthropy, and succession or wealth transfer.

As we do, we draw on our deep knowledge of family systems as well as the latest academic research from our affiliated members of the Family Business Centre at EDHEC Business School in Paris.
