Family Business Diagnostic Tool

Family businesses face unique challenges and opportunities that set you apart from the broader business community. That’s why we’ve developed a diagnostic tool designed specifically for family businesses. 

'Your Family Business Diagnostic' is designed to pinpoint the three primary strengths and weaknesses within your business at present, based on research by the Family Business Resource Centre which highlights 8 key factors that successful family businesses excel in.

  • Personalised Insights: Receive a report instantly to see how your family business stacks up against global benchmarks.
  • Family Business Specific: Designed with the unique dynamics of family businesses in mind.
  • Confidential and Secure: Your responses are kept strictly confidential and only used to provide you with tailored feedback.

In just 5 minutes, discover how your business performs across these 8 key success factors to uncover your strengths and areas for improvement, benchmarked against global averages:

  • Managing Growth
  • Professionalising the Business
  • Leadership Development
  • Formalising the Family
  • Communication & Conflict Management
  • Governance
  • Succession Planning
  • Retirement Planning

How It Works

Complete a series of 33 questions – 30 rating your performance from ‘strongly disagree’ to ‘strongly agree’, plus 3 open-ended prompts.

We recommend inviting other family members to join you; comparing different perspectives can spark valuable discussions about your business.
