1. How do generations define continuity? How do they propel it?
  2. Are the intentions of next-gen owners synced with their deepest desires?
  3. What is the allure of family-ownership?

NextGen Intentions in the Family Enterprise ǀ By their very nature family enterprises must reconcile the unpredictability of business with the responsibility of ownership and the challenge of realizing the aspirations of all family members. This fundamental combination, which has defined enterprising families for centuries, yields mixed results in terms of lasting legacies and family cohesion. If enterprise continuity is an overly burdensome concept on the minds of rising generations, a redefinition of legacy may be in order.
