Amy Hart Clyne has always been at the vanguard of family engagement by building sustainable cultures of family learning within prosperous families. For more than three decades, she has been a tireless proponent and leader in guiding and advising wealthy families on effective ways to fulfill the promise and potential of their legacies. She is the co-author of the book Finding Her Voice & Creating a Legacy: Portraits of Pioneering Women Leading Wealthy Families. The book is an exploration that draws from intimate, in-depth conversations with over 40 women of wealth about how they came to wealth, their role in the family, and the obstacles they overcame.

Amy’s real superpower is relationship building. Her infectious energy and glass-half-full attitude helps people overcome obstacles that prevent them from linking up with one another. She thrives as a bridge builder between people and groups offering genuine encouragement and an optimistic outlook on life that can provide a sense of comfort and stability in the face of uncertainty. She is a strategic thinker with a passion for learning and sharing those lessons with others.
