Rules are meant to keep us safe and ensure that we are treated fairly, but what about the self-imposed rules and beliefs that we consciously and unconsciously adopt as a child? The beliefs that we learn from our family, our peers, culture, religion, and society at large – they are the rules that form our ‘narrative identity.’

It is within these narratives, that we create those rules about what we can and can’t do, think and be. Families by their very nature are made up of multiple characters, each acting out their own narrative identity and set of self-imposed rules. But what happens when the rules we internalized as a child no longer serve us as an adult? Many of us continue to stick to them without question. Yet, it is these ‘unspoken’ rules that are precisely the ones that influence and consequently have the potential to jeopardize the longevity of a family.

In this powerful and interactive workshop, identify, explore, and challenge the unspoken rules that may exist in your own family and personal relationships. Discover how to communicate effectively, concisely, compassionately, and with integrity.

We all think the worst won’t happen, but what if it does and what if it happens suddenly? Without adequate preparation, the loss or absence of a key figure in a family business has the potential to harm the legacy of your family and its business.

With an estimated 70% of wealthy families losing their wealth by the next generation, the importance of open dialogue early on is critical to a successful succession. When everyone feels included, understood, heard and valued, the chances of you preserving not just your wealth but also your familial relationships is greatly increased.

Succession planning isn’t just about writing a will, it’s ensuring that in the event of a sudden loss everyone involved in the family business is emotionally, intellectually, financially and socially prepared. This personalised workshop incorporates practical tools and strategies designed to help your family build trust and communication with one another, ensuring that any unspoken words don’t go left unsaid.

Families all over the world adopt traditions that are inevitably passed down from one generation to the next. Some may be customary practices or celebrations influenced by culture or religion, whilst others may have been established over time through a family’s own unique culture and the characters within it.

Most of us take on these beliefs and behaviors as if they are our own without ever questioning if they feel true to us. Imagine then, how it would feel to become curious about your beliefs and why you behave in a certain way? How would it feel to be able to express yourself without fear?

This engaging and interactive workshop will help you to understand how your beliefs, both individually and collectively, influence your behaviour and decision making. Together you will build a roadmap for successful leadership and succession, underpinned by a set of shared values and purpose, to create a culture of family and business alignment.
