Who attends

Right for you?

Leading the Family Office is targeted at families of wealth considering setting up, or in the process of setting up a single family office, or wanting to identify the best practices for an existing single family office. The programme is exclusively open to family members. To get the most out of this experience, we strongly recommend family teams – members from the same or different generations – to attend the programme together. This will help you build on a common approach, promote team spirit and support within the family and facilitate implementation of what you have learned once you are back home.

This programme is designed for professionals within the family office. Attendees will include:

Family members in roles such as:

  • Business leader or family office leader
  • Employees and executives
  • Owners and beneficiaries
  • Board members
  • Investment committee members
  • Family council and owner council members
  • Next generation members
  • Lineal descendants and spouses

Non-family members are welcome if they attend with the family. They may be in roles such as:

  • Senior non-family executives in the family business or family office
  • Independent board members or investment committee members
  • Trustees
