NSE Services

NSE concentrates on: Business Family and the Blended Family. Each have very special challenges and great opportunities. When you combine the two to create a Blended Family Business, there is more complexity and more open, honest, discussion required.

Very often we do not want to talk about our family challenges, as we believe that all the other families are perfect, or have it all together. This assumption is a false one. 

Every family walks through tough times and it is even more common for the Family Business and the Blended Family.  

How would you describe the current state of your family?

Every family and family member, is on a journey. There are ways to make “your” journey easier and ways to make it more difficult. The great news is, you get to decide! Your past does not have to determine your future.

Is your family facing any of these situations?

  • Avoidance of meaningful conversations
  • Breakdown of communication
  • Not feeling heard or understood
  • Fair versus Equal dilemma
  • Entitlement within the family
  • Lack of interest in the family and/or business matters
  • Family conflict or friction
  • Family division or resentment

NSE believes that with guidance, coaching and facilitation (and some very hard work) you can, “Bring Your Family Together”. 

Yes, you can have: 

Family harmony!

Strong, trusting family relationships!

A Tribe Mentality!

Hope & vision for your Family’s future!

Positive family relationships are essential for the mental and emotional well-being of your family members. For the Family Business, this will also lead to a stronger business with a stronger bottom line and longevity.
