NextGen Successors: Time to Step Up
One of the topics that comes up over and over again in the family business arena is that of the next generation and their preparedness to take over the reins.
Who has not heard at least one tale of a leader who is reluctant to let go, while claiming that the supposed successor is not yet seasoned enough to do the job.

These two words are “interesting” and “special”. On the surface, they sound positive, and are most frequently used in a positive manner.
