Family Business Stories

Shining the Spotlight on Your Business and Your Family

As a family business, you are unique and you are special. You have an inspiring origin story borne out of hard work and a legacy to preserve amongst future generations. Simply put, there is no comparison between what you have to deal with and what other large corporations have to manage. But you are not alone! 

Through the Centre for Family Business, listen to other family businesses share their stories about how they have had to deal with real-world issues that hit close to home. Maybe you need to think about family business succession, maybe you’re working with your in-laws, and maybe you’re just riding the waves of family dynamics. Our members, their stories, and their experiences inspire us to continue connecting family businesses together so that we can all grow and inspire each other.

Why This is Our Members' Favourite

As a long time CFFB member, I can’t express enough how much CFFB has helped me over the years. The Support, the Education and Energizing has helped me navigate a “Family” business through the many ups and downs that most family businesses encounter.

Every family business in the area should be a member!

I love the sense of family community that we all bring together!! This past year I recently started attending more meetings and was involved in the Marketing group and I really feel we are very fortunate to belong to a wonderful organization, one that inspires us as a family company and keeps our focus on growing our company while keeping our feet on the ground.

We are members of CFFB because we are a family business that believes in supporting other family businesses, and CFFB gives us wonderful opportunities to do so. Plus, it is great to be with people that share common values and so many common experiences.The speakers are entertaining and educational – you can’t discuss families in business without finding some humour along the way!

CFFB provides the opportunity to share one’s positive and negative issues with a group of business persons who will respect the topics. The members will share their experience and solutions if they had similar issues in their organization. Support, integrity and in confidence discussions are the norm in CFFB. It is a superb group of persons who are committed to building relationships and assisting each other in any way that they can.

Widely Recognized as a Members Favourite

Our members find it interesting to learn about what makes their fellow family businesses unique and what they have so proudly achieved, helping them to better relate to their peers, and feel that they are not alone in their own business journeys.

The value of relationships and peer support in the family business community are among the greatest benefits CFFB has to offer. Having a group of people who understand and can sympathize, but can also offer insight and feedback to your issues backed by real life experience is invaluable.
