Читать книгу Complete Family Wealth - Keith Whitaker, James Hughes E., James E. Hughes Jr. - Страница 26

With regard to legacy capital:

1 Help each member of the family clarify his or her values. Discuss what matters most to each of you. Identify areas of overlap, of shared family values, and respect areas of difference.

2 Share stories of the family's history, and of the history of the various families that preceded yours. Tell stories of failure and disappointment as well as of success. Sometimes the stories of failure followed by striving and achievement are the most powerful ones.

3 Honor family traditions, whether around holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, or other important milestones in the lives of family members and of the family as a whole. Discuss which traditions family members are eager to preserve and celebrate, and which some or all family members might be ready to let go of.
