Engaged Ownership

Engaged Ownership provides educational training and resources for family business owners and advisors. We offer tools and insights that enterprising families can apply to their unique family and business to create solutions that work for them. Engaged Ownership: A Guide for Owners of Family Businesses (Wiley, 2015): Engaged Ownership is the definitive owner's guide to the family enterprise. It offers families and their advisors a road map for integrating owners into the decision-making fabric of the company to carry on the family’s legacy, vision, and strategic direction. The book provides a comprehensive look into the experience of enterprising families through the story of the Owen family, four siblings navigating a generational transition in their business. The Engagement Toolkit: For family business owners, success depends on good decisions. The Engagement Toolkit helps families strengthen their decision-making skills by developing engagement, alignment, and competence, and to build a governance system that fits the needs of their family and their business. The Engagement Toolkit comprises six modules. Each focuses on specific tools business-owning families need to in order to navigate being an enterprising family together.
