About this book
Create and maintain a high performance family office and build a legacy
Family offices are business entities built to primarily support a family's wealth. Several trillions of dollars of wealth are concentrated in a small number of these offices globally. Yet often, family offices are not successfully passed on from one generation to another, creating disruption for family members, the ecosystem of providers, and broader society.
Scott Saslow is a family office principal who has experienced the building—and rebuilding—of his family office many times.Unlike many family office books written by non-family advisors, this book is written by an insider who knows what worked and what didn't. Along with the expertise of dozens of family office principals and top service professionals, Saslow shows how to
• identify a unique and compelling purpose for the family office, which engages the next generation;
• manage some of the interpersonal challenges inherent when working with family members;
• create high performance family offices that make a difference for family and the broader society.
Written for both the new and experienced family office principal, Building a Sustainable Family Office will inform and inspire with an "insider's view" of the opportunities and challenges of building a family office that lasts.
