Continuing the Legacy Seminar Series for the Emerging Leaders in Family Businesses

2014
  - 2015

This is our ENCORE of the first highly successful Seminar Series for Emerging Business Leaders. Feedback and input from our frist class has helped us focus the offerings with the things that matter the most to future leaders in their family's businesses.

In our work with Family Businesses, we help the emerging leaders understand some business fundamentals. They may know all about their family's business, but lack knowledge of some business basics required to run an enterprise. Accounting/Finance, goal setting, Human Resources, and Marketing and Sales.
