Family first companies generally emphasize the needs of the family over what is best and most productive for the business. There usually are no set boundaries between family issues and business issues.

Business first companies have a clear set of boundaries between family issues and business and do not let the two intertwine. The best interest of the business is a priority.

During this interactive workshop, you will use a simple questionnaire to help you ascertain whether your leanings are more toward "family first" or "business first". You'll gain a deeper understanding of the pros and cons, and how to find a path that allows you to harvest the upsides of both and minimize the downsides of each. This "sweet spot" can yield great rewards for both the family, in their interpersonal relationships, and for the business, in its financial performance.
