The family tree of our family business reflects the generational dynamics of the business. My father, calm but stubborn, provides the foundation with knowledge and values, emphasizing high-quality products in a niche market. My mother nourishes the family with loyalty and caution. The next generation, including my siblings and me, embody diverse traits like curiosity, expressiveness and adventurousness, shaping the company’s future
I love the family tree metaphor—it brings the dynamics to life beautifully. But I found myself wanting a bit more connection to the bigger picture. Maybe you could link this to a common family business model or give a real example of how these traits have influenced a decision or challenge? A reference or two would really ground it.
