The Goering Center for Family & Private Business, at the University of Cincinnati, is a leading educational and informational resource center for family and closely held businesses. Membership in the Goering Center benefits businesses of every size and industry.  As a member business, everyone on your staff is a welcome constituent. Together, you can attend programs, meet other family business owners, and benefit from the privileges that your business membership provides.
 
With the intent of accelerating business growth and sustaining family business harmony, the Goering Center can help you address the unique and critical issues facing firms of all sizes including:
  • Succession Planning
  • Leadership Development
  • Governance Issues
  • Communication Techniques
  • Compensation Issues
  • Conflict Resolutions
  • Strategic Planning
  • Advisory Boards
  • More

The Goering Center has one of the leading programs in the country, preparing the Next Generation of family business owners to manage the family firm. Our Leadership Development Institute is designed to address the unique challenges faced by those leading a family business.  And the Strategic Business Planning Institute will allow your team to take away an implementable plan on a few pages, not a two-inch binder. The Goering Center also maintains an extensive resource library of videos, publications, and texts relating to many of the unique issues faced by family firms.

MEMBERSHIP: Three types of membership classifications assure a diverse and rewarding learning and networking opportunity at the Goering Center.

Core Members: All family and private businesses that are effectively controlled by a family, families or an individual make up our core membership. These companies aspire to grow and thrive in an ever changing economy. The Goering Center supports their growth through excellence in education and training. The Goering Center does not list Core Members on our web site.

Associate Members: While many companies and firms are not "family" owned, they have an active interest in the challenges and needs of family-owned and privately held businesses. They are often advisors to Core members or provide products and services to Core members.

Corporate Partners: This is a special category for key supporters of the Goering Center. Our corporate partners sponsor and underwrite various center programs.
