                  At the Family Enterprise Center, we understand that leading a family business comes with unique challenges. That's why we’ve designed intimate, highly curated Peer Groups—exclusive communities where like-minded business leaders come together to share, learn, and grow.
                  
                  Our peer groups provide a confidential, supportive space where you’ll engage with 8-12 non-competing peers who face similar challenges. In monthly, facilitated meetings, you’ll explore key issues, share best practices, and receive actionable feedback. Each session is designed to help you grow your business, preserve your legacy, and navigate complex family dynamics.
                  
                  You must be a Member of the Family Enterprise Center at KSU to join a Peer Group.
