Cause #29
In this episode, I explain why strong family governance is one of the most critical foundations for long-term success in business families. I show how governance helps manage the natural tension between the family as an emotional system and the business as a commercial system by replacing assumptions with clarity, structure, and agreed rules. I outline how effective family governance - through clear vision, shared commitment, long-term strategy, family councils, documented systems, and the skills to implement them - prevents conflict, supports succession, and enables families to act as good stewards of their legacy rather than being derailed by unresolved family dynamics.
