WE UNDERSTAND FAMILIES IN BUSINESS

World-wide family business research has proven that those who operate with an advisory board that includes external members  usually outperform those family businesses without one . 

Bill Winter is a renown Australian expert on family business advisory boards. He has sat at the table on family business boards and works with families to ensure the governance and systems are in place. whilst ensuring that he will add value and improve business performance and sustainability.

Family company directors and senior managers have onerous liabilities and responsibilities requiring careful guidance systems and support. 

No one has ever achieved real success working on their own. This was a hard earned lesson for us when we operated our own family business. With a successful history of business experience and knowledge in both listed and private companies as owner and CEO,  Bill Winter understands the issues business leaders face when operating in a turbulent and ever changing business environment such as we face everyday at work in uncertain times. 

We understand that business success is all about people and culture, a common vision, robust conversations, systems and processes and the ability to set targets and goals and and measure performance.

We use our proven experience knowledge to add value to the family leaders and all immediate and extended family members to gain a consensus on how the next generation will lead the family business. Our aim is to  ensure the family business survives and flourishes . 

Not all family member will work in the business. It's possible that no family members will be the future CEO. We are often trusted to facilitate the difficult conversations and gain universal agreement. 

The objective is to secure a written family rules of the game ( Charter) that is signed by all member beneficiaries and becomes the future reference point.
