Can a family business prosper without a family member at the helm? If you are considering the transition, learn how to revitalize your family business by working with professional management.
Join the Global Family Business Network and Jonathan Crystal (YPO Gotham) for a conversation with family business owner Sean Lang (YPO Palm Beach Gold) and professional manager Jeff Watters, previous President and CEO of Ainsworth Pet Nutrition, to hear how together they took their organization from fifth generation family-owned and run to family-owned but professionally run, resulting in growth from USD100 million to USD2 billion in 10 years.
Learn how to revitalize your family business by working with professional management.
Hear how family dynamics can improve with the support of a professional third-party coach.
Understand the value of making difficult changes to improve the future growth of your business.
NOTE: This YPO Live session is part of the Global Family Business Network's Revitalizing the Family Enterprise learning theme.
