Barbara Fagan-Smith,
Family ROI Founder & Managing Director |
 |
Barbara developed the initial
concept for Family ROITM
several years ago when she was experiencing stress in her
own family. She realized that while many successful people pour a lot of
themselves into their work, few invest the same energy into the most important
area of their lives, their families. Barbara has been an entrepreneur,
journalist and business communications executive and consultant for more than 20
years. In addition to starting Family ROI, she is the founder and CEO of a
business consulting firm that helps companies adapt and succeed in times of
change. Her firm counts many Fortune 500 companies as clients, and has won
dozens of awards. However, she considers her biggest accomplishment to be her
family, which includes her husband Colin and their two young daughters Emma and
Marina. Through them, she has realized that business "best practices" can be
successfully applied to the family. Barbara is dedicated to helping families be
the best they can be, which is why she founded Family ROI. |
