Family Business Advisory | Los Angeles, CA & Southampton, NY

Build the Next Generation. Protect What You’ve Built.

Advising small- to mid-size family businesses through succession, leadership transition, growth, and the challenges of preparing the next generation to lead.

The Goldhill Group helps founders and next-generation leaders navigate the difficult conversations, leadership gaps, family dynamics, and organizational changes that determine whether a family business thrives through the next generation.

When the Business Is Ready for the Next Chapter—but the Family Isn’t Quite There Yet

You may be facing questions like:

01

How does the founder step back without losing control of everything they built?

02

Is the next generation truly ready to lead?

03

How does a son or daughter earn credibility with longtime employees?

04

Who should make which decisions—and who is accountable?

05

How do you professionalize the business without damaging the family?

06

What happens when everyone knows a transition is coming, but nobody knows how to talk about it?

These are not simply business problems. They sit at the intersection of family, leadership, ownership, and legacy.

That’s where I help.

Disruptive successor by Jonathan Goldhill

Responsibility Of Corporate

On the other hand, we denounce with righteous indignation and dislike men who are so beguiled and demoralized.

Only 13% of family businesses last through three generations and less than two-thirds survive through the second generation.

Want to beat the odds? You need to know the strategies that work today.

The strategies revealed in my free chapter of Disruptive Successor will give you specific ideas you can use immediately to drive growth and enjoy the freedom a family business owner should enjoy.
