Family Governance: Building Stronger Families, Not Just Stronger Businesses Webinar

Zoom Webinar, Halifax, Nova Scotia

Families in business often find themselves focused on operational success but less prepared for the dynamics of alignment, succession, and communication across generations. 

Join us for this exclusive online session that will introduce practical governance structures that help families thrive across both their business and personal lives. 

Drawing on frameworks used in family offices but adapted for Atlantic Canadian families, participants will learn how to create a “family constitution,” establish effective family meetings, and build tools such as a “family bank” or council of elders to balance decision-making.

  • Founders & First Generation: Gain tools to prepare successors and clarify roles before transitions become urgent.
  • Second Generation & Beyond: Understand how to balance individual goals with collective family values and responsibilities.
  • Key Takeaways: Attendees will leave with 10–12 thought-provoking governance questions they can use immediately with their own families to spark discussion, reduce conflict, and align future direction.
  • This is not a technical or legal presentation but a highly engaging, conversational session designed to leave participants with clear, practical starting points.  Walk away with powerful questions and practical starting points you can use right away to reduce conflict and build a shared vision for the future.
