Summits
As families grow and multiple generations become involved, it is important to have longer periods where families are able to learn, bond, plan and grow together. Family summits will often have age appropriate activities for multiple generations and events that involve collective opportunities for exploration and decision making. For older children and adults, these will be opportunities for education and decision making that enhance the family's human, social, cultural and financial capital with consensus.

Family Gatherings
We help bring families together to sustain success across generations. Part of bringing families together involves bringing the family together in the same place. That is why we primarily work with families through family gatherings of various types. We then facilitate these gatherings to bring the family together in deeper ways by working on values, vision, governance, communication, and other core competencies. Some multi-generational families are already conducting or are ready to conduct family summits. For these families, we are able to make these experiences far richer and more powerful through focused intention and the profound application of theory in practice. Our experience helps ensure that all necessary steps are taken in the right order so the desired outcomes are efficientlyt achieved and not derailed.
Retreats
Family retreats will typically start on a Friday evening and go through Sunday morning. These are more extended opportunities to explore family possibilities and potentials. Retreats will typically include an educational component, assessment tools, interactive discussion and family exploration, integration of perspectives, envisioning next steps and action plans. Using a wide range of techniques from voice dialog, to personality assessments, polarity management, communication effectiveness training, emergent planning models and other approaches, the family designs its long-term objectives and creates paths of growth and value specific to their family's desired outcomes.
