Head, Heart and Bottom Line

About us

Our mission, our purpose, is to help businesses in our region grow, succeed, and excel themselves. Their owners also: business growth and personal growth go together. Our motto is "Head, Heart and Bottom Line"™. Our businesses need and reward our rational thinking, our commitment to purpose, values and relationships... and if we're not holding ourselves to a respectable standard at the bottom line, we're not in business. Growing a business is one of the most challenging and rewarding long-term projects you can take on. You'll need to get outside your comfort zone in all sorts of ways, and you'll need helpers, advisors and supporters. We have programs and support for business owners at all stages, from individual mentoring to board-ready and board-effectiveness programs for more mature businesses. We work a lot with family businesses, particularly in developing succession plans as the founder generation starts to move on. And we're very proud to have brought South West Leaders to our region - the first time every, anywhere, that an International Leaders series has come to a regional area. We love the hard stuff, and we are communications professionals. We're about complementing, not replacing, your existing specialist advisors in areas such as tax and accounting, legals, or HR/IR. We take, and help you take, the helicopter view that integrates all those into business success.

    "Successful chief executives are rare, and they need to be celebrated.

  • Forum works. Forum is magic. Forum has fans in family businesses all over the country. Give us a call to learn more!

    Rawnsley Park Station, a 2nd generation family business based in South Australia's beautiful Flinders Ranges, has developed from a small business into a tourism resort with an extensive range of accommodation and visitor experiences for both domestic and international visitors. We spoke with the Smith family to learn more about the family business and how they developed their offering to attract more international visitors over the years. Tony and Julie also shared a bit about their succession and governance journey, and how being part of an FBA Forum Group helped them to understand how family business models work in real life situations. “We have found the Forum Groups to be really helpful in understanding how other families deal with the pressures and demands in a family business. Perhaps the biggest learning experience has been the opportunity to see and hear from family members at different stages in the family hierarchy.” Read the full chat with the Smith family here: https://bit.ly/3WCwVym #FamilyBusiness #FamilyBusinessAssociation #FBA #LocalBusiness #MeetOurMember
