VALUES, MISSION & VISION STATEMENTS
What are your family's values and what values do you want the business to promote? Does your family business have a vision? What does your business stand for? These questions can be answered in clearly defined Family Business Values, Mission & Vision Statements.
FAMILY BUSINESS GOVERNANCE
Many owner-managers of family businesses experience a growing sense of isolation in their daily struggle to survive and excel. Many will ultimately sell out under duress or fail, falling victim to a powerful tendency among family businesses to fall short of their potential ...
STRATEGIC PLANNING
Research shows that over two-thirds of family businesses reported not having a written strategic plan. Changes that motivate a family business to consider developing its first strategic plan may be internal - related to ownership succession, management succession ...
SUCCESSION PLANNING

CONFLICT RESOLUTION
Conflict is unavoidable, even in the closest families and the best run companies.

FAMILY BUSINESS COACHING
Family Legacies has vast experience in coaching family business and corporate executives who recognise the value of having a sounding board or mirror to encourage deep personal reflection, to enable them to clarify options and determine the best mix of their own skills and experience to meet each new challenge.
BUSINESS TRANSITIONS
Family Legacies focuses on the integrated cycle of buying, improving, growing and selling businesses. We provide business consulting and ownership transition services to privately held small and mid-size business owners. Our mission is to help owners transition their businesses on their terms, on their timeline, at the maximum selling price.

Your business is very likely your most valuable asset (often 80-90 % of your net worth and 100% of your annual income), so why do so many business owners fail to exit their business and realize this value successfully? Why are there so many excuses to avoid the subject?
SELLING YOUR FAMILY BUSINESS
Under certain conditions, selling the family business can be the smartest thing you will ever do to succeed as an enterprising family. And it may be the best thing you can do for the business. If a family cannot own and manage its business in a way to make it productive, valuable and satisfying, the family should consider selling this business to others who could do a better job with it ...
