How does it feel knowing that you might be the next leader in line? How does being destined to lead impact your identity? How do you build credibility and enable your authenticity? Will you always be compared to the previous generation? Can succession in family businesses be meritocratic? And is the right way for the next leader to emerge amongst siblings or peers?
In this episode, we explore the fascinating dynamics of leadership succession in family businesses. We may find that these invaluable lessons are applicable to the abiding challenges of succession in any type of organization, and especially those struggling to replace their current strong and successful leaders.
We are joined by Dr Mariana Moura, consultant to family businesses, board member of a family business, who completed her doctoral research on next-generation leadership in family businesses and author of the book "Supergovernance: A Broad Look at the Challenges of Family Businesses".
