Business owners we have mentored, coached and worked with over the years do not hesitate to acknowledge that we have been able to add value to them personally, the next generation and their business.
We have facilitated many business owner conversations, mentor and coach family business leaders and next generation potential leaders. This includes the conversations that are often too hard to hold. Leaders in business appreciate we understand the issues in business face on a daily basis.
Bill Winter's background is in family business from an early age through to owning and leading a successful food manufacturing company with a sibling.
His value to you includes board membership and chairing advisory or family boards, CEO roles, GM roles, consulting and mentoring. I have seen an economic roller coaster style economy and been through economic hard times since 1990 and know how it hurts private business owners. As a young teenager, the kitchen table was an extension of our parents business. Our early learning was by osmosis and then, over the years, by hard work, life long professional learning and by broad industry experience.
Over the years we have been business owners, public company directors, hospital and school board members, business turnaround specialists, lecturer, workshop facilitators, mediator and advisory board members for private companies. MAICD, FIM&L, FAMI
The COVID-19 crisis taught us to unlearn much of what we did previously and challenge every part of our business model.
There is no normal as we knew it before. It will be a case of differentiate or die.
Our humanistic process is designed to take the isolation out of your business life and foster robust and honest conversations.
We do not use templates as business owners and their families in business are often driven by emotion and some internal conversations require independent facilitation to ensure every individual has a chance to be heard.
Talk to us today about how we can work with you and support you with your business issues and build a better business for all, because the way you meet client expectations is going to be very different from now on.
Sometimes we have been accused of asking too many questions. We ask them, but it's up to you to think through the answers and consider change.
