April 19-21, 2023 | The Vinoy Renaissance, St. Petersburg, FL
THE NEW 3 CIRCLES: ENGAGEMENT, SUCCESSION, GOVERNANCE
YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED.
YOUR ISSUES ADDRESSED.
The success and sustainability of your family business depends on your ability to navigate 3 critical areas: engagement, succession, governance.
At Transitions Spring 2023, we will tackle these thorny topics in a mix of sessions, panels, workshops and keynotes. Because these are the most common issues facing multi-generational family businesses, we invite you to join us – and other family business leaders -- as we explore how these 3 key areas intersect within successful and sustainable family businesses.

Why Transitions?
Speakers from family companies: Our focus is on speakers from family enterprises, sharing real-life problems and solutions.
Intimate, open environment: Limited attendance, and a private "safe harbor" environment in which to openly share challenges and opportunities with other families.
Collaborative discussions: Opportunities to work through family issues via guided discussions.
No-sell environment: Conference sponsors understand and commit to participating as thought leaders and experts, and are restricted from actively selling their products and services.
Peer groups: Attendees get the opportunity to engage in small working groups with an industry expert facilitating the session. This is a tech-free place for you to share stories, resources and experiences in a confidential environment with other family businesses. Our pre-conference survey will ask you to identify the topic you want to address, so you can be sure to get the most out of your experience
Networking with families like yours: Hosted networking, opening reception, meals, breaks and workshops are all designed to allow you to meet many family enterprise attendees.
Family focus: Brought to you by family-owned Family Business Magazine. We use family-owned or family-controlled hotels, transportation services, restaurants and service providers whenever possible. We believe in, and invest in, America's family businesses.
Who Should Attend?
Attendance is limited to owners, CEOs, directors, senior executives (including non-family executives and non-family board members) family council leaders or shareholders of family-owned businesses whose primary business is other than advising family-owned businesses.
This conference is designed to facilitate conversation on important family issues among generations.
Senior advisers to family businesses may attend only with family members.

See what our attendees say about Transitions...
"I always learn something new and meet new people experiencing the same things I am. I've never had a support network like this one."
"I thought it was a great idea to have no tech in the breakout sessions. It's amazing how much more engaging the sessions were when there's no slide deck; it was perfect for small groups like that."
"I was amazed at how open everyone was about sharing their stories. I got several ideas on dealing with the issues facing our family and our business. Very beneficial."
“Such an open environment — eye opening would be an understatement. I look forward to coming back next year and bringing more family with me.”
