Let's be honest, #companyvalues often sound like they've been pulled straight from a motivational poster in a '90s office break room — generic, overly optimistic, and somewhat detached from reality.
But here we are, cowboy-hat in hand, ready to share ours. 🤠
Yes, we're aware that rolling out the 'values' talk can induce a collective eye roll faster than you can say 'synergy.' But bear with us.
We promise to keep the corporate jargon to a minimum and share with you a genuine insight into what makes us tick as #TeamSpag.
So, without further ado, here's our attempt at not sounding like every other company out there while explaining what truly matters to us.

As we pivot back to the office, we embrace the paradigm shift that fosters unparalleled synergy and enhances our collective bandwidth. This robust return to the workplace is a game-changer, amplifying our culture of innovation while optimizing stakeholder engagement through in-person collaboration. Let’s leverage this opportunity to unleash our full potential, all while pivoting our tea breaks into strategic brainstorming sessions, because nothing says productivity like fluorescent lighting and a commute that perfectly distracts us from our ever-growing to-do lists!

When it comes to office politics, my advice is simple: don't play. It's easy to get sucked into the drama, but it's not where your real value lies. Instead, focus on delivering results. In the end, your ability to create value is what matters most. The rest is just water cooler chatter.

Never send an "urgent" email and immediately walk over to ask, "Did you get my email?"
Trust me, they got it. Let them breathe. ⏳

Communication Breakdown: The Silent Killer of Family Offices
Lack of effective communication can be a cancer that quietly eats away at even the wealthiest family offices. This short video highlights why having clear communication protocols is essential.
Without regular reporting lines, and opportunities to discuss priorities, issues quickly fester beneath the surface. Misalignment between the family's objectives and the Family Office's actions can quickly breed mistrust and dysfunction.
Even if you don't have formal protocols, every family office operates with unwritten "de-facto" communication norms. The question is - are those norms intentionally designed to build strong relationships and trust?
Or are they just toxic patterns passed down?
As the video stresses, any communication plan must incorporate the family's core values to keep their objectives and the Family office's activities in deep alignment.
From financial reporting to next-gen education to milestone celebrations, purposeful communication fosters engaged principals.
The myriad platforms available (email, video calls, apps, portals, etc.) enable frequent touchpoints. But are you using them in a structured, strategic way?
Or are they just ad-hoc noise?
The most vital communication isn't just the family office updating principals with the monthly balance sheet. How often do you proactively gather insights from the family themselves about their evolving goals and vision?
At the end of the day, formulating a clear, long-term plan, with achievable milestones, is powerful. But without deploying an equally rigorous communication plan to socialize it, your strategic vision will remain just a dream.
What are the biggest communication pitfalls you've experienced in your family office?
And what protocols have helped you overcome them?
We'd love to hear your perspectives. Let's discuss in the comments!
