Compensation is one of the most personal topics in family business. It touches on fairness, worth, identity, and legacy all at once, which is why many families handle it carefully and sometimes avoid it altogether.

Here’s the encouraging truth:  compensation planning is a powerful tool for strengthening trust and preserving family harmony.

Join FBCG President and CEO Kristi Daeda, along with consultants Shawna Lecuyer and Nicole Bettinger Zeidler, for a practical and grounded discussion on how to approach compensation in a way that supports both business performance and family relationships.

In this webinar, you’ll learn:

  • Why compensation feels so personal in family business, and how proactive planning protects the relationships you care about most
  • How to move beyond “market rate” to a clear, shared compensation philosophy
  • The essential elements of family employment guidelines that set the next generation up for success
  • How your family council, board, and HR leadership can support objective, consistent, and harmony-preserving compensation decisions
  • Practical first steps you can take to start or strengthen the compensation conversation in your own family

Whether your family is just beginning to formalize its approach or refining an existing one, this session will offer practical guidance to help you move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

This one-hour webinar includes 15 minutes of open Q&A to address your questions directly.
