This two-session program introduces Family Enterprise Fundamentals, a practical and proven foundation for leading at the intersection of family, ownership, and business. Participants will explore the essential frameworks and conversations that help family firms align, make better decisions, and sustain both business performance and family relationships over time.

Join the Family Enterprise Center and your family firm peers for a timely discussion with Professor Greg Brown. He will share his analysis of the May employment report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and will facilitate a discussion designed for the Family Enterprise Center community. Participants will be able to ask questions and hear key insights from their peers.

Participants will examine the importance of articulating a shared purpose; defining a clear, compelling ownership vision; and creating explicit goals for growth, liquidity, and control. The course examines how ownership priorities influence strategy, capital allocation, governance structures, and leadership selection over time. The program will focus on clarifying ownership roles, decision rights, and governance to support effective communication and long-term continuity.
