Summary
In this episode, we’re joined by Katherine Bright, Family Enterprise Consultant at Trella Advisory Group. For nearly two decades, Kathy has helped family businesses navigate the decisions, relationships, and responsibilities that shape continuity across generations. Her work spans consulting, education, and board service, giving her a grounded understanding of the challenges families, boards, and advisors face when certainty gives way to change. Alongside her client work, she teaches and develops training for family enterprise professionals, focusing on leadership, succession, governance, strategy, risk, and productive family relationships. Our conversation explores the role curiosity can play when answers are not yet clear, including the fine line between anxiety and excitement, how families and boards respond to uncertainty, and what can emerge when failure is treated as part of growth.
