I’m Stephen Bray, and You'RE Pivotal
to the Family Business
Family businesses don’t just survive—they thrive.
When they’re run right.
And that’s where you come in.
For over 30 years, my goal has been to help people like you.
Business leaders, yes.
But more importantly, family leaders.
It’s not about fixing one or the other.
It’s about strengthening both.
Your family business isn’t like others.
It’s personal.
It’s legacy.
It’s about keeping things together, for today and tomorrow.
In the 70s, it started with social work. Then psychotherapy.
The real turning point came while working with families at London's Maudsley Hospital.
That’s when it became clear:
Family businesses aren’t just about strategy—they’re about people.
And getting those dynamics right is where the magic happens.
Family Businesses Keep the World Turning
You already know this.
Family businesses are the backbone of economies worldwide.
In the UK, they make up 90% of private firms.
In the U.S., they’re responsible for $7.7 trillion in GDP.
In India, they drive over 75% of the economy.
So, what’s the secret to their strength?
It’s you.
Your family.
Your values.
That’s what sets family businesses apart—resilience, legacy, and a long-term view.
Let’s Get to Work
You don’t need someone who just throws frameworks and theories at you.
You need someone who listens.
Someone who works alongside you to navigate the unique challenges your family business faces.
Together, we’ll build on what’s already working.
We’ll strengthen governance, plan for succession, and get the daily operations running smoothly.
Because when the next generation takes over, you’ll know you’ve set them up to succeed.
Family businesses aren’t just about today.
They’re about tomorrow.
And you’ve got the power to make that future a great one.
With love and best wishes,
Stephen
