Stories of Transformation

How our approach has helped businesses create value across generations

CASE STUDY

From Regional Leader to Global Institution

A third-generation family manufacturing business was facing a critical juncture. Strong in their home market but struggling to expand internationally while maintaining their quality-focused culture.

The Challenge

  • Governance structure limiting growth beyond family management
  • Cultural dilution fears preventing strategic acquisitions
  • Next-generation leaders unsure of their roles

Our Approach

We designed a governance framework that balanced family control with professional management, created cultural integration protocols for acquisitions, and developed a 10-year leadership development program for next-generation family members.

CASE STUDY

From Financial Holding to Value-Creating System

A private holding company with diverse portfolio businesses was achieving adequate returns but missing the potential for transformative value creation through portfolio synergies.

The Opportunity

  • Portfolio companies operating in isolation
  • Untapped customer and capability synergies
  • Capital allocation based on historical patterns

Systems Transformation

We helped identify reinforcing loops between portfolio companies, redesigned governance to encourage collaboration while maintaining autonomy, and implemented dynamic capital allocation based on system-wide value creation potential.
