The Livingston James events season has really swung into action seeing us bring together some of Scotland's finest leaders and organisations in different settings. Last week, with Barclays UK we hosted our latest Family Business Leaders dinner at The Ivy in Glasgow. We had a mix of family business owners, next-generation leaders, as well as non-family C-suite leaders working in family businesses in the room. A huge thank you to Yasmin Nabi, Jamie G., and Malcolm Crawford from Barclays and to the wonderful Mairi Mickel who chaired the evening so well. In total our guests represented organisations that had been in business for over 1000 years! Their honest perspectives and contributions added significant value to the discussions, and what really stood out was the passion and care they put into their work. Many, especially the older businesses, have had to overcome plenty of twists and turns with actual triggers like premature family member death, exiting non-family CEOs, market disruption and perceived triggers such as divorce and tech disruption. We discussed that taking the long-term view and being a custodian is one of the things that helps provide business stability to those bumps in the road. The general consensus is that non-family executives or non-executives can also provide long-term stability in the boardroom. Succession was a real focus of the conversation, and we heard it was common for succeeding generations to join the family business but be encouraged to pursue other ambitions first before ultimately coming in. In truth, we had several topics we never got to, with succession taking up a fair amount of the evening, but it gives this great group further reason to get together again! If you are a leader within Family Business and feel you would benefit from joining in the conversation at future events, please get in touch: alishaw@livingstonjames.com Sophie Randles Jamie Livingston Mark Lewis Rachel Sim Harry Thomson Kirsty Mclardy (nee Sim) Kirsty Ross

This week, I get to share some ideas... Not just any ideas, but dangerous ideas that challenge how we think about value, belonging, and connection. First up, is the Valmark member summit in Orlando. We’ll explore what comes after experiences. Offering great service is no longer enough, businesses need to create moments that turn clients into members and members into communities. Thank you to Tate Groome, CFP®, CLU®, AEP® for being my inside champion, and to Caleb Callahan, CFP®, CKA®, CEPA® for seeing the world the way I do. Always fun to see Michael Kitces who is also speaking. The next stop is, the Family Wealth Alliance fall forum, the theme is standing out, the art and science of today's experience economy. Perfect! They picked the right keynote speaker. What matters most isn’t just how we deliver, but how we create real, lasting belonging. That’s the work. That’s the value. The secret is to understand the difference between service and experience. I'll close out the week in La Jolla, speaking at the Ed Slott Elite IRA Advisor Group, where I'll explore the design and staging of experiences that not only meet expectations but redefine them. 📌 The old playbook? It’s done. Excited to see what we can build together. #keynotespeaking #fallevents #businesscoach #keynotepresentation #businesscoach #BuildBelonging #experienceeconomy #CommunityMatters #ClientValue #advisors #transformation
