Family &
Privately-Owned Businesses
Are Unique
AIM is on a mission
to help family owned
businesses improve
their performance,
enhance their
relationships, and
work through the
various transitions
that are inevitable
in family-owned
companies.
Our team of
family business
experts
intimately
understand the
unique challenges
facing today's
family businesses.
•
Family issues
interfere with
effective
leadership.
•
Either the family or
the business is
undergoing dramatic
change.
•
Family relationships
and communications
are severely
strained.
•
Your business lacks
vision for the
future and clearly
defined action
steps.
•
You are ready to
plan for a smooth
transfer into
leadership.
•
You need someone
outside of the
family to facilitate
family
meetings.
•
You need to increase
your bottom line
through better
employee
and customer management.
One of
the best things
about family owned
businesses is that
family employees
have lots of heart
and deep
motivations. They
know each other
well, are willing to
sacrifice to give
each other
opportunities, and
have a high level of
trust and belief in
one another. This
positive culture
sometimes extends to
non-family
employees, too.
The challenges can
be just as heartfelt
and deep as the
advantages. The AIM
secret is that we
really get all of
that, inside and
out, because of our
own experiences. The
challenges are not
as black and white
as they usually are
in a regular
business.
How It Works
The overall
philosophy AIM
operates under is
the Paradigm of
Rights™--the Right
people, doing the
Right things, in the
Right way, for the
Right reasons, at
the Right time. The
right things are
different for each
company. There is no
one-size-fits-all
solution. That’s why
the first thing an
AIM representatives
does is sit down
with a company and
just talk. They ask
owners, “Who are
you? How do you
think? What do you
want to do with your
company? Where’s
your heart?" AIM
shares tools that
help companies
determine what their
objectives really
are.
A training program
will be used as a
component of a
program that
addresses issues
within the company
and move them where
they want to go.
Services include
strategic planning,
coaching,
assessments and
workshops, as well
as professional
technical and
leadership programs.
Through all the
steps of
development, when it
comes to
family-owned
organizations, AIM
makes the dynamics
of the family
transparent and
folds a family’s
special needs into
the plan. |
