Closely Held & Family Businesses

Closely held and family-run businesses navigate a unique intersection of business priorities and personal history—where business goals are often intertwined with emotional bonds, generational dynamics, and legacy considerations. At PranaCo, we provide a confidential, neutral space to help navigate these complexities with care, clarity, and professionalism.

We work with families to define and clarify roles, improve communication, and resolve both long-standing and emergent tensions. Whether you are navigating succession planning, generational dynamics, or differing visions for the future, our approach supports thoughtful dialogue and shared decision-making.

Our goal is to ensure that both business performance and family relationships are nurtured and sustained during transitions and beyond.

Examples of services:
  • Facilitated conversations among family members and non-family leadership
  • Clarification of roles, expectations, and decision-making authority
  • Legacy and succession planning with aligned communication
  • Family-business charters and value-based governance tools
  • Mediation of long-standing interpersonal conflicts
  • Transition support for incoming next-generation leaders
