The data is in! See what family owned businesses are saying about today’s challenges and opportunities.
Pat Soldano, President of Family Enterprise USA and Policy and Taxation Group, hosted a webcast featuring Eliza Orleans, a Principle at CFAR. The webcast, titled “Better Together: Strengthening Family Enterprise Teams,” aimed to teach family business leaders how to design and motivate teams across their enterprises.
Eliza Orleans, a Principle at CFAR, partners with leaders across various organizational levels to tackle complex challenges. CFAR, founded at the Wharton School in the 1980s, is a management consulting firm specializing in family enterprises.
The webcast emphasized that teams are more effective than individuals at solving complex problems due to their ability to leverage diverse skill sets, leading to more creative and robust solutions. Teams also foster a greater sense of workplace community and retention, a crucial factor as studies show a lack of community is a frequent reason for employee departure.

The need for fact-based reporting of issues important to family owned businesses and protecting a lifetime of savings has never been greater. Now more than ever, successful families and family owned businesses are under fire. That's why Family Enterprise USA is passionately working to increase the awareness of issues important to family owned businesses built on hard work, while continuing to strengthen our presence on Capitol Hill. The issues we fight for or against with Congress in Washington DC include high income tax rates, possible elimination of valuation discounts, increase in capital gains tax, enactment of a wealth tax, and the continued burden of the gift tax, estate tax and generation skipping tax.
Family Enterprise USA promotes generationally owned family business creation, growth, viability, and sustainability by advocating for family businesses and their lifetime of savings with Congress in Washington DC.
