Jay Doran Season 83 Episode 985

"Continuity is not the absence of change, but the ability to adapt without losing your essence."



Family business dynamic expert, coach, advisor, and the CEO and founder of Positively People Consulting Dr. Jean Meeks-Koch is making her very first appearance on the show and we are taking this dive really deep into a field that many of our listeners may not be very familiar with.  In a nutshell, Dr. Jean deals in organizational systems, restructuring, conflict resolution, and continuity planning among a plethora of other areas as it pertains to businesses that are run by families.  Those dynamics can be tricky because as the old saying goes, "You can pick your friends, but you can't pick your family."  No matter what happens in the business, those folks are always going to be your family and the challenges that can arise are unique to that dynamic.  Dr. Jean is here to discuss a little about what her work is all about, navigating familial relationships in business, and how to come out strong on the other side.  We are very fortunate to have Dr. Jean on the show today and we hope you enjoy this episode of The Culture Matters Podcast.
