S6E1: Business First, Family Always: Inside the Emotional Systems That Make—or Break—Family Companies with Andrew Keyt

In this episode of Org Health Advantage, Keith Hadley and James Felton sit down with Andrew Keyt (Generation6) for a candid, high-impact conversation on what really makes family businesses thrive—or unravel. From founder-to-sibling-to-cousin dynamics to the hidden “hats” people wear (family member, owner, manager, employee), Andrew reveals why most family enterprises don’t fail from strategy—they fail from unresolved relationships. You’ll learn how healthy governance creates clarity, how leaders earn credibility in the “successor’s curse,” why dividends can mask deeper emotional stories, and how to balance “business first” decisions with “family always” commitment—without sacrificing accountability or culture.
