Succession can make or break a family business. When done well, it builds trust, preserves relationships, and strengthens the company for generations. When mishandled, it can fracture families and sink businesses.

In this episode, cohosts Jim Berner and Sheila Janan talk with Betsi Bixby about a real family business that almost lost everything by trusting the wrong partner.

You’ll hear how a father, who doubted his children’s abilities to run the company, handed power to an outside executive who secretly undermined the family and fostered a culture of fear and distrust.

Betsi shares how Meridian helped uncover the truth, rebuild trust, clarify leadership roles, and transform the company culture, saving both the family and the business.
