The Orkin/Resolute Family Business Practice



While family operated businesses represent a growth engine that is unparalleled in the global economy’s landscape, most family businesses face profound leadership and succession issues by the third generation of the enterprise’s operations. Many never succeed past this critical benchmark.

Whether the family business is a brand-new enterprise or a seasoned member of the community, today’s environments of uncertainty and turmoil present owners and leaders of family businesses with an unprecedented array of challenges. More than ever, family business leaders need specialized guidance to help them as they address a wide range of issues, including but not limited to:

• Governance
• Partnership integration and leadership team optimization
• Leadership development
• Behavioral issues
• Internal family issues
• Succession and succession planning development
• Talent acquisition and retention
• Transition of significant leaders and employees from the organization
• Downsizing
• Non-family members appointed as leaders

The Orkin/Resolute Family Business Practice operates as a alliance between Orkin & Associates, LLC and Atlanta-based Resolute Consulting Group, LLC, whose clinically aware, multi-national expertise is sought after by CEOs, senior executives, business owners and professionals for specialized leadership, work/life, career management and career transition guidance.

“We are pleased to be in a position to offer this kind of high-quality guidance to leaders of family businesses,” Adam Orkin, CEO of Orkin & Associates, LLC states. “As a principal of a family business, I recognize the value of confidential, careful guidance, provided by qualified professionals who fully comprehend the environments in which family businesses operate. And Resolute Consulting Group brings decades of experience coaching family business leaders to the table.”

Mr. Orkin emphasizes the importance of specialized resources in helping leaders of family businesses realize their authentic goals. “Our close relationship with Resolute Consulting Group is the cornerstone of the Orkin/Resolute practice concept,” Mr. Orkin said. “We’ve worked with Resolute Consulting Group for years, and the positive results we’ve realized have been astonishing. Now, we are able to deploy the best of our experience together so that family businesses throughout the United States and Western Europe can have the benefits of that experience at their fingertips.”
