Conversation & Conflict Infrastructure installs conversation governance: a shared, engineered way for the family and its enterprise to build, hold and relay the conversations that direct its capital, so conflict is prevented at source.
1
The fracture: The Illusion of Understanding
Every document the family holds began as a conversation, and not one of them can hold a conversation.
2
What compounds: Relational Wealth
Each important conversation is built before it is had, and what is said reaches the people it concerns as it was meant.
The fracture
The Illusion of Understanding
Everything of consequence to the family is governed on paper: the constitution, the charter, the investment policy, the succession plan. Each of those documents began as a conversation, and each is put into effect through one. The family’s capital is governed in detail. The conversations that direct it are governed nowhere.
Conflict sits on the risk register, and families rank it as one of their top risks. Its source is a conversation with no governance. When the unexpected happens, every document the family holds is fully in force, and not one of them can hold a conversation.
Difficulty reaching agreement across the family is the most-cited barrier to succession planning among Gulf families (45%), and many delay planning to avoid conflict between generations.

What compounds
Relational Wealth
Each important conversation is built before it is had. What is said reaches the people it concerns as it was meant, because the family possesses the Conversation Equation. Many families meet conflict downstream. This family has a structure upstream, where its members decode, integrate, calibrate, navigate and compound their conversations.
Where conflict does appear, the method for settling it already sits within the family’s own governance. When the leader at the top changes, nothing new needs saying. This is Generational Connection.
The family’s capital is governed in detail.
The conversations that direct it are governed nowhere.

Questions families ask
How do families prevent conflict over succession?
By governing the conversations that direct the family’s decisions, not only the documents that record them. Conflict is built at the source, in a conversation with no governance, and that is where Conversation & Conflict Infrastructure works.
What is conversation governance?
A defined, shared way to build, hold and relay important conversations across the family, the enterprise and its advisers, so what is meant is what reaches the other person.
Can a subject the family has avoided for years be opened again?
Yes. The Navigated Conversation gives the family the means to open any subject that seemed closed for good.
Is this available to multi-family offices and partner institutions?
Yes. Fesánti installs Conversation & Conflict Infrastructure with partners, so they are better able to serve the families both are there to support.
