NAEPC Webinar - Family Matters: How Business-Owning Families Can Work Together for a Unified Future
2022-10-19 20:00 - 21:00 UTC | Webinar
Much of the wealth in America today has come from family-owned businesses. Recognizing that family businesses are the engine of significant wealth, it should be no surprise that business-owning families would like to see the business (and the wealth from such business) continue through multiple generations.

But there is a rub. The likelihood of successful transitions of family businesses to the third generation and beyond is distressingly low: less than 12% of businesses survive to the third generation. Why the dismal results in succession planning for family businesses? This presentation will explore how the family can mitigate the failure rate and some best practices that can be implemented to strengthen the business and the family over multiple generations.

Claudia B. Sangster is an independent consultant specializing in financial education, family decision-making, and relationships around money and wealth. Claudia collaborates with clients and their advisors in identifying and establishing appropriate educational programs and governance structures for multi-generational families in order to prepare family members to steward the wealth, to enhance family unity and to help sustain all aspects of the family’s capital—financial, intellectual, human and social. She works with families to create their legacy of wisdom, wealth and giving through multiple generations.
