CEO of the Family Business to CEO of the Family Wealth Enterprise: The Critical Transition

Most great family fortunes begin entrepreneurially – typically a business, started by a founder, which grows over time to be successful and valuable. The circumstances may vary: however, under most “success” scenarios, the business, the family who owns it, and the primary decision-maker all go through a planned transition.
