SUMMARY:Global Trends\, Local Impact Course
DESCRIPTION:Global Trends\, Local Impact: Navigating the Forces Shaping Your Family Business\n\nSocial shifts\, emerging technologies\, environmental pressure\, economic volatility and political change are reshaping every industry\, and family businesses have more at stake than ever. The question isn't whether these forces will affect your enterprise\, but whether your family is ready to read them and act together.\n\nGlobal Trends\, Local Impact is an online workshop that helps families in business cut through the noise. Led by Dr. Robert Nason\, William Dawson Scholar and Associate Professor of Strategy and Organization at McGill University's Desautels Faculty of Management\, the session gives participants a practical way to scan the landscape\, understand what stakeholders and the next generation expect\, and turn big-picture signals into near-term decisions across the business\, the family and ownership.\n\nParticipants will learn to identify and prioritize the trends that matter most\, then translate them into strategy\, operations\, capital allocation and decision-making. They'll also gain tools for leading cross-generational conversations that turn uncertainty into clear choices\, and for setting early-warning indicators and decision rules so they act at the right time.\n\nThe workshop is designed for business owners and founders\, next-generation leaders\, family council and board members\, and family members involved in governance. It's equally valuable for Family Enterprise Advisors who want to bring current\, strategic thinking to the families they serve.\n\nDate: Thursday\, November 12\, 2026\n\nTime: 11:00 AM   4:00 PM ET\n\nFormat: Online\n\nPricing: Free for FEC members. Non-members $695 + tax\, which includes up to two tickets\, and the full course fee can be applied toward FEC membership if you join afterward.\n\nFEAs: May register one family business client for free.
