The Council's Mission
In 1995 Cal State Fullerton, the third largest business
school in the nation, formed the Family Business Council
to assist family businesses in recognizing their common problems
and in finding solutions to the unique issues that confront
them. The Council's mission is to use education to help family
businesses in our region grow and prosper and to keep harmony
in the family.
How the Council Works
The Family Business Council is an educational forum
organized and under the direction of the College of Business
Administration and Economics at California State University
, Fullerton . The Council gives its members the opportunity
to learn from experts in an academic setting. During each
school year, the Council offers nine workshops on topics
of special interest, confidential discussion groups, and
informative and entertaining events. We also offer CEO Groups,
2nd Generation group and Women's owners affinity groups for
family members.
The Council provides a comfortable environment for information exchange. Members
can develop personal relationships with other successful business owners. Like
you, these individuals are seasoned entrepreneurs who represent experience,
contacts, and new business opportunities. Also, members have direct access
to the resources of the university and the Council's professional partners
and advisors as they seek solutions to their problems and concerns. Council
partners and advisors are specifically prohibited from soliciting business
from Council members and guests.
