Learning from Beau's Brewery: Steve Beauchesne on Family Business and Peer Groups

from Table Talk with ABFI · host ABFI

He quit his job, sold his house, and moved his young family into his parents' home to build a brewery with his dad. Beau's All Natural Brewing became one of Canada's most recognized craft beer brands — and then Steve Beauchesne and his father had to sell it.Steve joins Matt Knight for a candid conversation about what it really takes to build a business with family: the governance lessons, the employee ownership plan that backfired, and the convergence of financial strain and personal tragedy that led to the sale. He also shares why those hard-won experiences now shape his work as CEO of Family Enterprise Canada and why peer groups may be the most important investment any family in business can make.Learn more about ABFI at ww.abfi.ca, connect with Matt Knight at [email protected] or LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/mattknightThis video podcast series is proudly produced by the team at Road 55 - located in Edmonton, Alberta.For more information, please visit: www.road55.ca
