Having seen my fair share of offices over the last 13 years or so, I can say that I have seen what good looks like. I have also seen the mistakes that can be avoided or fixed.
In the latest Family Office Sherpa Podcast episode I cover: "10 Common Mistakes I See Family Offices Make (And How To Fix Or Avoid Them)".
In no particular order:
* Governance vs. Portfolio Management
* Investment Policy Not Matching the Portfolio
* Workarounds Over Improvements
* Price Over Value
* Cyber Security Only After the Fact
* Keeping Things in Their Heads
* Filling Seats Over Finding the Right Fit
* Control Over Competency
* Not Seeing the Office as a Business
* Thinking You’re the Only One Facing These Challenges
Hopefully this is helpful for offices that are starting or reviewing their structure.
