Every family business succession story has an official version. This podcast is the unofficial one.

The hidden dynamics, blind spots and unspoken tensions that only show up once you’re in it. The stuff you’d normally unpack over a drink with someone you trust. Shane Williams is having that drink now, with the people who’ve lived it.

Trailer: Welcome to My Shout

There are two conversations in every business transition. The official one that happens in boardrooms, management meetings and tidy documents, and the real one that happens afterwards, over a drink with someone you trust.…

Where the board meeting ends and the real conversation starts.

Family business succession rarely unfolds as neatly as the plan suggests. The hardest parts are often the things nobody expected to discuss: control, identity, legacy, fairness and what comes next.

New episodes land fortnightly. Guests who have lived it, no polished case studies and no tidy hindsight. Just what actually happened, and the questions worth asking sooner.

Shane Williams

Hosted by Shane Williams, strategic advisor to family businesses, boards and family offices.
He asks the questions everyone saves for after the meeting.
