About the Event
How to manage your farm family’s expectations about inheritance
How does a family define fairness? Is it helping everyone be successful or is it helping the farm be successful after the farm transition?
Fairness keeps founders awake at night. Fairness means different things to different farm team members and the non-farming heirs. Elaine tackles the challenges most families face when trying to be FAIR during the farm transition.
The audience will receive the FAIR (Financial transparency, Attitudes, Intentions, Rebels) model:
Understand the need to unpack financial transparency and the tools to do it (income streams, debt servicing, viability of the farm).
Navigate attitudes towards money by encouraging families to have clarifying conversations about inheritance expectations.
