The Legacy Centre Speaker Series: Kick-off to Family Business Celebration 2015
On Friday, November 13, we will officially kick off our fifth annual Celebration of Family Business at The Legacy Centre Speaker Series.
"Unlocking the Mystery: Ensuring Success from One Generation to the Next" presented by Henry Hutcheson, Founder of Family Business USA and Author of "Dirty Little Secrets of Family Business"
There can be no greater joy than successfully owning and running a business where you get to work with the people you love most. Unfortunately, there is a myriad of obstacles that prevent many businesses from achieving this success. Successfully navigating family business conflict and transition can be elusive unless an effort is made in some key areas.
To help bring clarity to the unique nature of family businesses and why some fail and others succeed, Henry will share top success strategies and stories from family firms around the globe and his personal experience growing up in two renowned family businesses.
Is harmony and success possible? On November 13, learn the critical issues and steps that family businesses need to know in order to achieve the family business dream with a full heart and pockets!
