Most family businesses are born out of passion, but there comes a time when professionalization becomes necessary for the growth or survival of the family business.
We therefore use our broad knowledge of the labor market and expertise in family dynamics to prepare your organization for its future. We scrutinize the organizational structure and work on specific themes that will benefit further professionalization.
Introducing new employees to a company’s operations, vision and values is important to ensure a lasting partnership.
In family businesses, however, these elements weigh even more heavily than in other organizations; after all, the DNA of the family is woven into that of the business and guarantees long-term continuity.
We are happy to help you develop an onboarding strategy that makes everyone in your family business feel closely aligned with your mission from the start.
Compensation is a tricky issue in family businesses. A mix of share ownership and operational activity can be a stumbling block, but mutual differences within the family can also spark discussions.
Our broad perspective on this topic at diverse organizations – from small SMEs to large publicly traded companies – provides us with insight into market-based figures. On the other hand, we mainly try to facilitate the conversation about remuneration.
Who evaluates whom in the family business? When there are family connections in addition to roles within the organization, this is not always an easy issue.
We therefore consider from the structure of your company where evaluation is necessary and which lines are useful for this purpose. In this way we ensure valuable feedback conversations and an objective way of evaluation.
The backbone of the family business is undoubtedly the business family behind it. But working together with blood relatives brings specific challenges in addition to benefits.
At Motmans & Partners, we are happy to use our expertise to strengthen cooperation within the family business and support the business family regarding HR.
Central to our approach are the needs and desires of you as a business family. Based on the values and norms within the family business, we consider the best possible options for issues you face.
We do not invite you to avoid difficult topics, but always guard a constructive way of working together. Moreover, we do not approach organizational challenges alone, but attach great importance to the human aspect of the story.
