Family Businesses Face Unique Challenges
There is no greater joy than sustaining a business with your family. A legacy plan can help mitigate family stresses so that proper business planning can take place.
Reduce Conflict in Your Family-Owned Business
Regardless of your unique family dynamics you can learn to manage conflict & achieve generations of successful financial succession and harmony.
BGEI’s MULTI-DISCIPLINARY TEAM CAN SHOW YOU HOW.
Legacy Planning Pushes You to Think Broader
Every budding entrepreneur and seasoned business owner has one thing in common – they are building a legacy.
To sustain that legacy takes planning, care and commitment. It also takes the foresight to consider all members of your family and the roles they’ll play. If you relate to any of the following questions, we can help.
HOW DO I AVOID CAUSING DEEP CONFLICTS IN MY FAMILY?
By far this is the number one hurdle that family-owned businesses face. Succession strategies that include ways to be equitable and fair without causing greater disharmony among siblings will alleviate this stress.
WILL MY BUSINESS COLLAPSE IN THE HANDS OF MY CHILDREN?
You’ve put in the hard work and perseverance to build a successful business. A clear plan will allow you to transfer the wisdom, principles and processes you’ve developed to create wealth and solidify success in your unique niche.
HOW CAN I FAIRLY DIVIDE MY ASSETS?
Your legacy isn’t about passing on wealth to future generations. It’s about preparing your family to become the stewards of everything you’ve built. A Legacy Plan helps ensure the family unit understands their role so that your business not only survives but thrives.
WHAT HAPPENS TO MY PHILANTHROPIC PRINCIPALS?
Generosity is a gift that can also be passed on. With a legacy plan in place, those communities and organizations that you’ve supported and the causes that you’re passionate about can still be honoured by future generations on your behalf.
At Bourne Global Enterprises, Family is Our Number One Priority
Bourne Global Enterprises (BGEI) began because we learned first-hand how important a comprehensive legacy plan is. We are third generation members of a complex family enterprise comprising a portfolio of businesses and property built by our father. Dealing with his unexpected loss was more challenging because there wasn’t a transition plan in place. This fueled a passion to help other families in business avoid similar pitfalls, nurture relationships and grow both their business and family’s wealth.
