    With almost 20 years of working with families as the executive director of the Loyola University Chicago Family Business Center and in his private consulting practice, there’s not much that Andrew Keyt hasn’t come across. But it is his personal journey of overcoming challenges as a next-generation business leader that makes his perspective so unique.  In this episode Francesco and Andrew discuss many of the unspoken issues that exist within family business relationships, such as the importance of vulnerability, the need to address mental health issues and how generations can learn valuable lessons from one another.  Connect with me here: • https://www.linkedin.com/in/francesco-lombardo-fea-496a7966/ • https://www.facebook.com/VeritageFamilyOffice • https://www.youtube.com/@VeritageInternational • https://veritage.ca REMEMBER TO SUBSCRIBE ON YOUR FAVOURITE PODCAST PLATFORM TO NOT MISS ANY FUTURE EPISODES!

    Which Version of the Truth with Don Phin

    Like so many of my guests, Don Phin has led an extraordinary life. Growing up in the Bronx, his journey has taken him from being a former trial lawyer to starting a HR company to now coaching CEOs. Don has gone on to use the lessons he learnt in the courtroom and specifically draws on his experience of how different versions of the ‘truth’ can cause a breakdown in communication. As a recently trained Veritage coach, Don works with a preventative approach and believes that listening and encouragement are critical to engaging the next generation and to building healthy lasting relationships.  Connect with me here: • https://www.linkedin.com/in/francesco-lombardo-fea-496a7966/ • https://www.facebook.com/VeritageFamilyOffice • https://www.youtube.com/@VeritageInternational • https://veritage.ca
