In 20 years of working in single family offices, EFO Advisory Services Founder Rebecca Maguire has learned that there's often a disconnect between what principals think they need and what their teams actually need to operate effectively.
Many teams of private service professionals continue to take on more, operating on the brink of burnout but managing the chaos so well that their principals don't feel the pain. This is a lose, lose situation. Staff deserve support, and principals don't want to risk losing their best people. So, how do you know when your team has reached its bandwidth, and how do you ask for more resources?
In this episode of the Easemakers Podcast, Rebecca digs into resourcing and operations, exploring common challenges and offering expert tips for ensuring your team has what they need to be successful. Tune in to hear the risks of operating without the proper resources, how to navigate conversations around resourcing, and how to bring plans (not problems) to your principals, and tips for setting up systems and structure for your family office and household staff from the beginning.
