The Family Business Flywheel: Turning Alignment into Momentum

What if your family business could run on renewable energy... not solar or wind, but the energy of trust, alignment, and shared purpose? In this episode of Building Unbreakable Brands, host Meghan Lynch talks with Michael Palumbos, founder of Family Wealth and Legacy and creator of the Family Business Flywheel. Michael shares how this framework helps entrepreneurial families synchronize their business systems, family dynamics, and wealth strategies to build momentum that sustains across generations. From redefining the family as an asset to fostering advisor collaboration, this conversation offers practical insights for any leader looking to strengthen both enterprise and legacy.

Key Topics Discussed
  • Reimagining the Family as an Asset: Why sustainable family wealth starts with strengthening relationships, communication, and shared values, not just financial performance.
  • Inside the Family Business Flywheel: Exploring the three “cogs” that drive lasting success: self-operating business, family office coordination, and sustainable family legacy.
  • Breaking Advisor Silos: How integrating accountants, attorneys, and wealth advisors under a shared vision can save families both money and heartache.
  • Scaling with Intention: Building enterprise value without sacrificing trust, communication, or the family’s evolving purpose.
  • Next-Gen Voices: How fostering open conversations around values, vision, and personal passions prepares future generations to lead.
  • From Movement to Mindset: Why the Flywheel approach is less a model and more a long-term commitment to generational stewardship.
