Preparing the Next Generation: Bespoke Bootcamps for Affluent Families

In the evolving world of family wealth, one of the most pressing challenges faced by ultra-high-net-worth (UHNW) families and family offices is ensuring the next generation is not only financially literate but emotionally prepared and aligned with the family’s long-term vision. Traditional financial education often fails to address the real needs of affluent successors—leaving a crucial gap in legacy preservation. That’s where Select Advisors Institute steps in.

Our Next-Gen Bootcamps for Affluent Families are uniquely designed to prepare heirs and beneficiaries to become thoughtful, responsible stewards of family capital—both financial and relational.

Why Next-Gen Bootcamps?

The transition of wealth across generations is not just about assets—it's about transferring values, purpose, and leadership. Studies show that without intentional education and development, over 70% of wealth transitions fail by the second generation. The missing ingredient? Communication, shared purpose, and readiness.

Our bootcamps are built to counter that statistic by providing immersive, transformative experiences that prepare next-gen family members for the complexities of managing and sustaining multi-generational wealth.

What Sets Select Advisors Apart?

Unlike generic wealth education programs, Select Advisors Institute offers highly customized, intimate training experiences that reflect the values, goals, and structures of each unique family.

These bootcamps are not simply about numbers. We integrate:

  • Emotional intelligence training to foster self-awareness, resilience, and interpersonal effectiveness

  • Financial education tailored to real-life decision-making, investing, and risk management

  • Leadership development, helping heirs understand their voice, presence, and capacity to influence

  • Family governance training to equip participants to actively contribute to family councils or boards

  • Philanthropic planning to guide next-gens in becoming thoughtful impact-driven leaders

How the Experience Works

Each bootcamp is delivered through a curated blend of workshops, off-site retreats, experiential activities, and mentorship—all aligned with the family's cultural and financial DNA. Depending on the family's goals, we can include role-playing sessions, simulations, business case analysis, team-building challenges, and intergenerational discussions.

Programs can range from one-day intensives to multi-week formats and are often held in exclusive locations that encourage openness, connection, and creativity.

Tailored for Families Who Think Long-Term

We work with single-family offices, multi-family offices, and advisors supporting UHNW families who recognize that a generational mindset is key to sustaining wealth. Families who partner with us often seek:

  • Alignment between wealth and purpose

  • Increased readiness of younger family members to participate in family decisions

  • Better communication and cohesion between generations

  • Preventive education to avoid entitlement or conflict

Through our bootcamps, families experience not only stronger financial acumen in their next-gen members but also a deepened commitment to stewardship, shared values, and personal growth.

A Legacy Worth Building

The future of wealth isn't just in the hands of the next generation—it depends on how well they are prepared. Our bootcamps are more than training sessions; they are turning points for families seeking to preserve more than just money.

We help families build a legacy that is defined by intention, leadership, and continuity—not just balance sheets.
