History
Helping families navigate change
Photo credit: Steve Dashew
The Aspen Family Business Group, LLC was founded in 1987 as a consulting resource to help families successfully navigate change to achieve harmony and prosperity.
We came together as a group of consultants who each had their own practices.
As a collective group we developed content and disseminated knowledge about families in business together. The Aspen Family Business Group became one of the thought leaders in the emerging field of family business consulting.
In addition to our individual and collective work with families over the years, we also held workshops for and mentored other advisors to assure that families receive the best possible advice. Wealth advisors, lawyers and accountants were frequent regular attendees.
Our work and the individuals in the group have been recognized with many honors and awards.
