In this episode of the Family Biz Show, host Michael Palumbos is joined by executive coach and author Cathy Carroll to explore the emotional and strategic tensions unique to leading a family-owned business. Drawing on personal experience and her new book Hug of War: How to Lead a Family Business with Both Love and Logic, Cathy reveals how families can navigate leadership challenges, intergenerational conflict, and complex relationship dynamics with clarity and compassion. The conversation dives deep into the concept of polarities—opposing truths that both carry value—and how recognizing them can transform everything from governance decisions to estate planning. Cathy and Michael discuss critical tensions like fairness vs. equality, tradition vs. innovation, structure vs. flexibility, and revealing vs. concealing wealth. Through real-life stories, including Cathy's own journey of working with her father, they unpack how forgiveness, intentional leadership development, and healthy conflict can strengthen families and businesses alike. Takeaways Family businesses must manage emotional and operational polarities—there is rarely one right answer. Governance should be structured, but flexible enough to evolve with the family's needs. Fairness doesn't always mean equality—especially when it comes to compensation and ownership. Healthy task conflict can drive innovation, while relationship conflict can destroy trust. Estate planning requires balancing transparency with timing and maturity. Power dynamics, especially between generations, must be managed with awareness and intention. Forgiveness is a leadership tool—starting with yourself and extending to family members. Preparing next-generation leaders requires more than a title—it requires mentorship, coaching, and clarity.

He credits much of how well they're doing as an organization to the University of St Thomas Family Business Center and its long time Executive Director, Jon Keimig.The Walters family is moving into their second generation of leadership. At one point all four children of the two founders worked in the business, but three have since moved on to launch and grow their own enterprises. The oldest child remains as the COO of the company and according to his 'boss', is doing a fantastic job in his role. At some point, he could be groomed to succeed Mike, or the family will opt to seek outside leadership again. Time will tell, but Mike is still in growth mode and doesn't plan to go anywhere. There were many tips and stories that Mike shared; you'll want to hear them.Listen to the episode here.Connect with Julie Keyes, Keyestrategies LLCFounder, Consultant, Author, Pod-caster and Instructor
