Family communication can become strained during transition periods in a family business. When managed effectively, family talk can bring about positive growth, new opportunities, and enhance family relations. Individuals and families that can develop functional flexibility have the greatest chance for relational and business survival during difficult periods. This workshop will focus on characteristics and implantation of individual and systemic functional flexibility. Participants will learn tools that help to constructively manage change and the conflict that change produces in the family and business system. |
