From Business Families

Selected comments from long-term advisory engagements.

"Randel's work in helping our family through transition from generation to generation, and from owner managers to governing owners has been of huge value. He has worked with my family through the transition process for the 4th Generation. His distinction between business strategy and family strategy, together with a rigorous development programme for the next generation were a key ingredient to success. The focus on family values and vision helped us develop an amazingly strong management team."
Andrew Wates
Chairman of the Wates Family Enterprise Trust, Wates Family Holdings
