Conflict Management for family businesses 

---

Typically in the family business, family members are in key positions of responsibility. This adds a layer of complexity to interpersonal dynamics within the leadership team, creating a need for conflict management and resolution skills and interventions.  To accommodate the specialized needs of conflict management for family businesses, Brio Leadership chooses to look at the company through a systems perspective, seeing how all the members of the company contribute to the functioning of the third entity, the organization.  

Brio Leadership uses several methods to equip leadership members to manage their own conflict, including personality assessments and personal conflict-style assessments.  By expanding their self-awareness first and then the awareness of other’s predetermined conflict styles, an understanding of the interpersonal dynamics is achieved.

• Governance and Meeting Facilitation
• Strategic Planning
• Succession Planning
• Translating Strategy into Tactics
• Speaking Topics

We also appeal to leader’s ability to engage in non-dual thinking and big-picture approaches to problem solving.  This appeal draws out the highest level of leadership ability in the individual and enables the team to consider many perspectives in decision making. 

In our experience, once leadership teams and family members have increased their self awareness, their knowledge of how the team works together, and understand big-picture thinking, the team performs at a much higher level.  And because leaders set the tone for the company, the entire organization is able to meet its growth goals more easily.
