Nextgen e innovazione per le imprese familiari
Sviluppare competenze e motivazione per il futuro delle imprese familiari
Defining one's role in the family business
Ensuring continuity in a family business means identifying and cultivating future leaders who are responsible, motivated, and capable of effectively managing professional relationships and family ties.
It means at the same time developing adaptability to changing contexts, new technologies and turning competitive threats into development opportunities. The program provides members of the next generation (NextGen) with the thinking and managerial tools to assume leadership roles within the family business.
It guides young members of entrepreneurial families in making educational and professional choices and in considering whether and how to contribute to the family business in the various roles of manager, board member or shareholder.
Who should apply
You are part of the NextGen of an entrepreneurial family. The course is aimed at daughters, sons, grandchildren and more generally young relatives of active business leaders in the enterprise (NowGen). It is also aimed at those who are already members of a Board of Directors and those who are already members of a Family Council or Family Foundation.
