Dynastic Strategies From the Inside Out
Just as every tree is different and has a unique story, the families we serve do as well. Our thoughtful, strategic, and effective services are designed to help successful and affluent families, their family office staff, and their trusted advisors formulate and implement strategies that result in durable family harmony, financial prosperity, and operational excellence.
Are you part of a single, multi-family or embedded family office (a family member or staff) and wanting to modernize or upgrade it? Have you recently come into liquidity or are planning a liquidity event in the near future and do not have a structure or plan to manage the new realities and complexities that come from wealth? Are you a trusted advisor to a family, or play a role in the family office team (internally or externally) and need support and resources to foster a healthier and higher-performing system and team? Do you feel that your own or your client’s family office has plateaued and the unique circumstances are challenging and sensitive to address? Xylogenesis™ can be your partner and resource to address those specific needs in a tailored manner.

“Working with Rich is like slowing down to speed up. I initially wondered why we were spending so much time on values and intentions; however, the time paid off and it made writing the operating agreement so much more efficient and the big decisions so much easier because we were already in agreement about the family values and funding priorities.”
