For family capital, leadership isn’t a formality — it’s an existential decision

For family capital, leadership isn’t a formality — it’s an existential decision.


Campden Wealth and PwC data expose a quiet fault line:
→ 66% of family businesses say they have governance structures — yet only 42% of family offices globally do.
→ Nearly two-thirds still lack a documented succession plan.
→ One wrong CEO or failed hand-off can erase decades of compounding in a single cycle.

That’s not a governance gap. It’s a continuity crisis.

At Eagle Talon, we treat leadership selection as risk management.
We run scenario planning, CEO fit tests, and alignment checks because legacy isn’t a slogan — it’s the system that keeps capital and values moving in the same direction.

Succession isn’t about titles. It’s about endurance.

👉 If you were advising a family office today, which leadership metric would you refuse to overlook?
