DESCRIPTION:\nAs professionals to Family Enterprises, we all know it is important for our families to be meeting as families to talk about the important topics they should be discussing in order to increase their chances of sustaining wealth over generations and practice responsible stewardship.  Moving a client to hold these type of “family meetings” can often be more difficult than it should be.  What are the clients afraid of? \n \nWhile many families have family secrets that have poisoned the family’s ability to communicate, other families are paralyzed by issues their advisors could easily help them address through a simple family policy. Some of the tensions that pose as elephants in the room are the inclusion of in-laws, family conflict, confidentiality, and the lack of accountability all compounded by a general  lack of understanding about the future.\n \nThis session proposes that tensions in these areas can be greatly reduced through developing and implementing family policies.  Additionally, a non-investment Risk Management Policy can go a long way to assist family advisors in moving families forward with estate planning, pre-nuptial agreements, Insurance coverage, etc.  Learn how developing family policies can help to further your work with your clients.\n \n \n \nAbout The Speaker\n \nDaisy E.
