Our approach is:

• People-oriented
What do we mean by that? The new generation of leaders brings more than enough professionalism and entrepreneurship. We also see that this generation takes into account the values and culture of the business. They have a strategic business focus but include the human factor. Plans are realised together with the people.

• Professional
Experience and professionalism are key to entrepreneurship. They can only be understood based on what is deeply engrained in the DNA of these types of businesses. We offer not only the analytical and selection capabilities, but true involvement as well. Importantly, we understand the history and the desired changes for the future, taking into account the culture and core values.

• Careful
In addition to speed, a careful approach is equally important. We engage all stakeholders: shareholders and people in the business, B of S or B of D. This ensures the necessary support and approval when it comes to the final appointment. We always maintain a transparent and personal process, both in the search phase and during the subsequent support and on-boarding.

The paradox: continuity and innovation
Ebbinge has worked for family businesses for many years, at the executive level and for B of S and shareholder positions. We are aware that continuity is demanded while innovation is often needed as well. We know the leaders who can strike the perfect balance to deal with this paradox.

Our team
Our Family Businesses team is specialised in matters of succession for family and majority shareholder-run businesses. The team works in a transparent and careful way before and after the appointment and boasts an extensive network of entrepreneurial leaders in all company disciplines, who are keen and qualified to work in these companies.
