In this episode of the Family Office Success Podcast, Christi addresses the looming “great silver tsunami”—a wave of retirements among first-generation family office executives. Drawing on real-world examples, the episode explores the challenges of talent shortages, knowledge drain, and outdated systems. Listeners are guided through three transition strategies: traditional hiring, doing nothing, or partnering with strategic providers. Emphasizing proactive succession planning, technology upgrades, and tailored advisory solutions, the host underscores the importance of early preparation to ensure continuity, minimize risk, and position family offices for long-term success in an evolving landscape.
