BlackSmithLamb, LLC is the embodiment, vision, and fruits of prior generations. The family “entrepreneurial” heroes, who this company has based its history on, where both humble and extraordinary in their achievements. What once was a small plumbing company, a floor laying business, and a real estate firm, have joined forces under the family holding company now called BlackSmithLamb, LLC. The Company has a twofold vision for multi-generational success: Achieve strong business performance & keep the family committed to and capable of carrying on as the dynamic "entrepreneur." We achieve this vision by following the Six Dimensions of Growth: 1) Harmonious relations within the family including understanding of how family members should be or not be involved with the businesses based upon personal strengths 2) An ownership structure that provides sufficient capital and professional management for growth while allowing the family to control key parts of the business vision 3) Strong governance of the holding company 4) A dynamic and evolving business portfolio 5) Professional management of the family’s wealth 6) Charitable foundations to promote our family values across generations. BlackSmithLamb owns the outstanding voting stock of other privately held companies, assets, and investments in multi industries and sectors of the economy. Those assets include multiple staffing firms, real estate holdings, residential mortgage firm, B2B loan company, executive consulting services, and an employee servicing company. BlackSmithLamb, LLC is currently being co-lead by Braden Black, CEO, and Kristi Black, President.
