I would call the experience intensely professional but also incredibly personal. There’s a lot of learning coming from the speakers, but an equally huge amount of learning coming from the interaction with the other families.
CEO, Haldor Topsoe Holding A/S, Denmark
Truly fantastic and highly relevant. Finally, an organized and well-structured approach dealing with all the challenges facing us as a family and business entity.
Seolahm Consulting Ltd, 1st Generation, Nigeria
The program was insightful…mind-blowing. It has a lot to give, in terms of interactive sessions and diversity. It was amazing to see a diverse culture of peers being able to interact, network – and that the problems faced within one country are similar to those faced in another.
Chairman and Family Member of 7th Generation, Bossard Group, Switzerland
The learning is superbly balanced with theory and practical cases, always highlighting the main message and staying on track.
Customized programs
Sometimes, a fully customized program is what is needed. Perhaps your needs are changing or unclear? Or you are unable to travel to IMD? Or do you wish to remain private?
These are just some of the reasons to talk to us about developing a fully customized program for your family; a program that reflects your family’s unique opportunities and challenges, your ownership group, or your business, based on participants’ goals and level of experience.
Our approach focuses on the family business ecosystem as a whole and often includes diagnostic assessments, designing structures, developing strategies, processes or plans, facilitating courageous conversations, educating, and benchmarking.
