In all organisations, people are a valuable asset. Much time and effort are spent on the optimisation and professional growth of individuals and teams – whether through recruitment, assessment, coaching or the design of compensation frameworks – making this an important focus for many public companies. In family enterprises, this is equally true, if not more so.

Developing Talent and Managing People in the Family Enterprise explores the unique people-related challenges that families and their advisers face, bringing together insights from experts in the field and family members themselves.

Topics covered include:

• family dynamics and the challenges of wealth transfer;

• next-generation talent – developing future leaders in business families;

• preparing and educating the next generation;

• what high-performance sport can teach families about leadership, teamwork and talent;

• advising families on reputation and privacy in the age of AI;

• why investment decisions are not only about money;

• achieving investment best practice in family offices; and

• family constitutions and their applications.

At a time when families and their advisers face challenges such as rapidly evolving technology, shifting budgets and generational differences, the in-depth analysis, strategic guidance, anecdotes and case studies found in this Special Report make essential reading. It is an indispensable resource for family businesses, family offices and other family enterprises, along with accountants, lawyers, executive search firms and coaches.
