## Resource

After the sudden passing of their father in 2020, sisters Melissa Jensen, Marissa Wolfe and Kristie Mueller faced the challenge of stepping into a leadership role at their third-generation family-owned business. This episode is about growing through that transition and how it earned them a nomination for the Supply-Build Canada 135 Forge & Form Gala’s Women of Influence award. In this episode, you’ll learn what goes behind the scenes of what goes on in a family-owned business when transitioning ownership. You’ll learn how these ladies got to learn their role and how to support the business, especially when Marissa and Kristie pursued their own degrees outside of the building material industry. The importance of communication between the family and the team, and how that leads them to the success of the proud on-going legacy of a third-generation business. Along with the process of transition on both ends of the ladder, from modernizing internal systems to picking up and keeping relationships with previous customers and builders. If you care about business succession planning, transitioning into family-owned businesses, creating a strong team, and modernizing your business, this conversation is worth your time.
