Empowering families to be the place of growth, individually, as a family, and as part of society

About the Family Institute

We believe in the importance of lasting family relationships and their power for good.

Every transition, every change in families, is an opportunity for the whole family and each individual member of it to take part in building a future and legacy that works for all.

That’s why we founded the Family Institute, with a network-based approach between families, advisors, and experts, to scale what works in families.

Meet the Team

Alessandro Rocchi - The Family Institute.

Families are where everything starts.

They are the first place where we feel at home, work out who we are and what we stand for. Where we learn how to communicate and manage conflict.

When relationships sing, family members flourish, vision, values and attached organisations take flight and grow.

Approach

We start from the belief that families are a vivid system, where transitions are happening continuously. Our families are the last to see us change, and shifting roles and responsibilities can be uncomfortable. But we believe that friction is a crucial source of growth.

With that principle in mind, we designed a process for families to come together and make use of a powerful support system of peers and experts, to clarify and define their future path.

Each family begins by aligning on their goals and setting their direction together. They then start a tailored journey to achieve those goals and join the Family Institute community.

Families that work with us receive the following:

Clarity and Peace of Mind
