EXERCISE: Ownership Strategic Thinking What is your family’s long term wealth creation strategy? Harvest Strategy Growth Strategy Q. Does your ownership group want to be in harvest mode or growth mode? Discuss both scenarios. Q. Are you intentionally building new assets and value streams or are you milking old assets? Is this good or bad? Q. What are the issues and criteria for deciding if you are in a harvest mode…or a growth mode? Key Concept: “It is fine to be in harvest or growth mode as long as it is an intentional strategy and everyone understands the ramifications of your choices.” • Institute for Family Enterprising
