Content: Family businesses operate with a challenge of continuity for succession management and creating value across generations. Preparation for next generation leadership is essential to the sustained success of family businesses. Creating value across generations and frameworks for succession management are integral to this process.

This program is designed to include an open discussion with attendees to understand challenges they face in their own organizations and equip them with problem solving tactics and effective solutions. The module has been designed to support family business owners and their management teams, as well as for next generation members preparing for leadership roles.

The program will address three blocks of key family business operations.

• Corporate governance in family-led organizations – delving into challenges, best practices and what good/bad governance looks like. 
• The role of starter generations in nurturing new generations and the preparation of companies for the management of successors. 
• Tools for leading between the family and external stakeholders on the management team.
